I've Heard Whispers ~*Marge Tindal*~   I've heard whispers of a babe, born unto us this night. The stories meet me on the hills, glowing from the light. They tell me that he was born, in a stable in Bethlehem. The babe of whom they speak, have you seen him, my friend ?  I go from place to place I cannot find the babe. Tell me, please, have you seen him ? In swaddling clothes he lays.  I have gifts to bring on this Christmas day, I want to kneel at his feet so that he might hear me pray.  I look, I seek, I ask the path. It's more than I can bear. They smile at me and shake their heads and say they know not where. I travel the weary darkness, this night has been the worst. Tell him I am seeking him, if you should meet him first. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Ah Marge, keep following your heart...you write so well... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Karilea~ It hasn't been often that I have been moved, by my own words - to the point of tears - but I'll share that this is one of those times. May all across this earth meet Him and share Him with others. Elizabeth~ And in this season - it's hearts that I want to touch. Thank you for yours. LoveBug~ Oh, my dear - He has. That's what I want to share with others. VanDana~ Smiles at you, my friend. Doreen~ Hon, I would hope to share my faith with all who would search for Him. And friends ... yes, that is joy. Thank you for being uniquely you. Marsha~ I'm full of sharing~ Thank you for accepting my gift. GreenEyes~ I appreciate knowing you were touched by this small message. May the whispers be heard the world over. LightHouseBob~ And that star shines even brighter this night. May all find their way to Him. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Yes Marge I have found him. He says you are one of his most precious followers. It's strange I've read this several days before but didn't comment. Today when I opened it, was the first time I heard the music. I knew I couldn't pass up telling you how much I enjoyed it. |
