With God in My Life |

With God in My Life My life's like a shell Washed up by the tide. Pretty to look at, But empty inside. My life's like a branch Torn off of a tree. Falls in the river And drifts to the sea. Just like an eagle That soars in the sky, Lonely, with no one To hear when I cry. But shells hold the sound Of oceans within. Branches are gathered, Wherever they've been. The eagles can rise Above every strife. So this I can do, With God in my life! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (10-20-2002 01:27 PM).] |

I love the simplicity of God's wisdom that is expressed through your poetry here... What we sometimes view as limitations, God can use as a great attribute for Him and His Kingdom. We can do all things through Christ who gives us strength. Amen. God bless you my poet friend and thank you for sharing this lovely little gem. -Bob |

Betty, wonderfully written piece. We cannot be separated from the love of God. Hugs to you, Marti Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. |
