Why Redemptive Rhymes

  Rescue me from me, so I might serve Thee As to this world how big my eyes do see Trying not let it penetrate my heart Rescue me from me, so I might serve thee Just because everyone does to it agree In partaking, thinking it makes one smart As to this world how big my eyes do see I pray for strength from thee down on my knee In hope the temptation soon does depart Rescue me from me, so I might serve thee The wonderment does cast me to a degree Thou, my faith is strong never to depart As in this world how big my eyes do see As I pray I ask His help in a plea To keep my soul safe, from this world apart Rescue me from me, so I might serve thee Thou here I be, I was yours from the start Lord I pray, my being yours to impart As in this world how big my eyes do see Rescue me from me, so I might serve thee          ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : As Christians in this world it can sometimes be hard to stay devoted to the Lord God. Even harder when the Lord has made it crystal clear to you something

  Hey guys, I had to tell you of my fortunate sighting today as I was getting off work. It was daylight and I seen a nocturnal Luna Moth. Where I live it is very rare to see this special creation of  God's. Especially during the day. It was still alive and in our drive at my job. So, I lifted it onto a piece of cardboard and took it to safety in the leaves. I am glad I took a picture seen in the image below. They mostly represent transformation. Am not a mystical person as am God fearing, but I believe I was fortunate to catch such a sight on camera. Had to share this special sighting.   Live life to the fullest for God, as we don't have long here. Let the past go and press on into your future.  "I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 3:14 NKJV)

 Hey Guys, I appreciate all of you.  I opened my blog site January 2019 and published my first poem book February, 2019. It was midsummer of 2018 when I started this on going adventure in writing poems. My site has morphed many times during this time in separating the objectives of rhyming poetry encouragement and Christian living poetry and in changing of names of my site(s).  Currently will be forwarding my other site www.redemptiverhymes.com to this site shortly.  And will eventual change the name of this site. In addition, blooger.com is doing away with the email subscription link come June; just letting you be aware of this. Over the course of the last few years have wrote and published 7 poem books via Amazon. I have now updated my latest published book in the Growing Strong in The Lord Poetry series to include the recent poems I posted here. It has been an adventure of a life time for me as I had learned how to format both paper back and eBook (still learning eBook) for publish

Opportunity for Passion in Christ Forget not what He sacrificed Let the warmth grow in your heart as Opportunity for passion in Christ For to salvation our soul, He was priced With His life freedom ours He says Forget not what He sacrificed In pain at death His love for us sufficed Now our soul with Him inside has Opportunity for passion in Christ As unmarried hope in this does increase Where distractions this world is less With focus on Him to never cease As a couple, Christ first to this less stress When one's time as single was spent with Him For in that time one's soul greatly bless When to singleness things seem grim Forget not what He sacrificed In this season, one learns to sing this hymn Opportunity for passion in Christ         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Being single is not defeat, rather an opportunity that once attached to another somewhat diminishes. It's an opportunity to grow in passion for Christ as one is allowed more time to do so. Time that will decrease onc

In reminiscing over some of my past poems, this one touched my heart. It is in "My Form Created' poem book.
