Gazing up at heaven's majesty, Little sparks of life in the sky, It's not too difficult for me to see How lowly, Lord am I. And yet you gave your life for me. You sacrificed your spark And gave to me eternity How gracious, Lord thou art. So my soul sings its praises skyward In hopes they meet your ears In your heavenly palace bowers From my own loving tears. Grant me Lord your patience Your wisdom and your grace Until one day I can gaze Upon your own sweet face. Knowlege tempered by wisdom...Wisdom tamed by youth. |

Oh Robert...I am so glad I read this...It falls along the same idea I was sharing with you just last night to your poem....uh...something "Zero".... I see you and I have both been doing some serious moon/star gazing of late! hehe Isn't it weird, how you can look up into the sky, and find nearly all the answers you're looking for? Maybe it's because that's "heaven"....Where else would all the answers be? God's up there too, BTW.... I find great strength in looking into the stars and the heavens....it's calming and somewhat serene...when the "world" seems so chaotic. At times I wish I were a star up there.....How lucky they are....Thank you for sharing this with us....beautiful indeed. - - - If I can just touch you once, then I feel I have accomplished what I am called to do...- - pFF |

Absolutely beautiful!! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

Beautiful, beautiful prayer and poem, Robert. I sure could use a dose of Patience, Wisdom, and Grace, myself. Hope to be right there next to you when you, (we) finally gaze upon Him. Michael |

It's beautiful, RS, what more can I say? Oh, and happy new year too! Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |
