Growing Strong in The Lord. Part 2 Poem

 Once in Awhile


Our rewards can be blind and mild
Especially when to it the road was hard
But life can surprise you once in awhile

As others to you had been hostile
To this your heart became closed and charred
As rewards can sometimes be blind and mild

Then one enters that greatly makes you smile
For you thought that no one even cared
But life can surprise you once in awhile

As you give praise to God above
Your heart slowly opens again in thanks
This person has taught you again of love

Pain of past slowly melts as you relax
A friend indeed was all you needed
To help you see through the past attacks

The warmth and love of care is then seeded
For rewards can sometimes be blind and mild
The one sent from God above succeeded
Because life surprises you one in awhile

Thoughts: Life can be really harsh and hard for many. I know mine had been and did not see that any one even cared, at one point. Although I knew God did,  I needed a human to show care; as well. Being a friend to a hurting person may very well be their saving grace in showing love to others and in loving life again. Always try to have compassion for others as we are here to love one another. Remember this and give a hurting person a hand in friendship. It may be a challenge but worth the reward and very well may be a surprise in their life they have not had in awhile.

Happy Valentine, Love of my heart!

  “For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God” (Ephesians 3:14-19.

Holy Spirit- Acrostic Poem

"But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him." (1John 2:27. NKJV) "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." (Romans 15:13. NKJV). "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you." (John 14:26. NKJV). "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God," (Romans 8:16. NKJV). "By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit."

Two poems preview for "Growing Strong in The Lord - part one"

  Here two more preview poems from my Growing Strong in The Lord Collection. These are from where I left off in my Part One previews. I will be mostly posting preview poems, as promised, from my published books. Rarely will you see a new poem here on this site. These two poems from my Growing Strong in The Lord- Part One, "I Am Sowed By God's Words" , came out of knowing God was with me during an impact with my car and a full grown and huge doe deer. I listed these two poems just days apart, as I still felt the grace God delivered me that fateful day; reminding me of His grace and presence throughout my life.  It's Not Luck, But Grace ⭐ When one is thrown a curve ball Like something unexpected takes place That can bring an unforeseen pitfall One holds tight and does brace As one calls on the Lord above all He then sees you through this place In the aftermath you then recall The Lord got you through, you embrace For He can, no matter how big or small And then you rea
