~ In HIM ~ When the shadows seem to be too near When the path you walk is full of fear If your soul feels the pain too much And you face again sorrow’s touch Look to HIM to drive the dark away In HIM you’ll find your hope today When darkness covers up your sky When your wings are too weak to fly If the night never gives way to dawn If your soul feels battered and so torn Ask HIM to help you in your need HE will plant in you loves’ pure seed When your tears seem to always fall When you can’t hear happiness call If you feel rootless and cast adrift If in your heart there’s a rift Lift up your eyes to HIM and pray With HIM you’ll get through the day Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Marsha, darling girl. What a beautiful poem you have written, In HIM. You, sweet and very, very talented Marsha are truly amazing. Your poetry just keeps getting better and better. And your content is just the very, very finest. I'm sure that He is very proud of you! And you know that when you write a beautiful poem, like this one you will inspire me. And you DID. May I share with you the poem, below? You are the inspiriation and I dedicate it to HIM, for you. I will also post it in Spiritual. Thank you, Marsha for the joy you bring us. Yes, you know that I love you! xo ((Marsha)) -newell =========================================== Come fly with HIM (Inspired by Marsha's poem, In HIM) "The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel" –which means, "God with us." NIV Matthew 1:23 I hear her call, an angel, from heaven To come to HIM and bare my soul in need A trill so sweet my soul's reborn, leavens For she has planted God begotten seed. Come from the darkness; rise into the light A dawn is breaking into morning sun She takes my hand and leads me from the night To HIM, I see the crippled walk and run. I hear the music that she talks about Happiness calls my broken heart to sing My lost ship finds a star to guide me out I love her, in Christ I find the King. So now I'm called to fly above the stars With peace and joy and happiness above Up where the sun is always shining far And there's no night or sadness, only love, So take my hand and seek HIS face in joy Come fly with HIM. Come ev'ry girl and boy. Come fly with HIM.

Marsha, darling girl. I am reading you, again. You do inspire me! And so I write! And the poem, which you inspire, I dedicate to Mushy, Sweet One! xo ============================================ In Her - inspired by Marsha's poem In Him "Then the Lord spoke to you out of the fire. You heard the sound of words but saw no form; there was only a voice" NIV Deuteronomy 4:12. My darkened path I walk in sadness, fear O God where are you? I need your light here I need your fire to warm my cold, cold soul I need completeness; please come! Make me whole. As I search all Scripture, no man sees God In selfishness in greed and lust he plods Sinking deeper, deeper into his mire Illusions, lust, guilt, stealing her desire. And men of cloth articulate a He To serve in bondage never being free Although the Word shows God as a hot fire Burning sin; freeing converted liars. And as I look at man's wrong shaded choices I hear Warm Sweet Golden Women's voices Come in to Me! Come into Warm Desire My Womb awaits your soul in burning fire. Is She the other half of GOD, I Am! Sister, Mother of Christ God's Holy Lamb. And so in Christ my soul's in Love with God In Her.

I'm so glad I read this! Oh my gosh it's so beautiful! I want to die peacefully, in my sleep, like my grandfather, not screaming, terrified, like his passengers. |
