Poem of Thought

       

The Beauty Inside

How wonderful it is to be Your bride
In Your heartfelt care Your love does show
Thank You Lord for the beauty inside

When in this world my heart did divide
You dried my tears, this I know
How wonderful it is to be Your bride

And now with You as my spiritual guide
My heart is healing as love does grow
Thank You Lord for the beauty inside

They say beauty only goes skin deep
But to this I know to be a lie
As from within is where beauty is keep

Some only know what's seen with one's eye
In not looking inward to one's heart
No matter how hard some do try

Beautiful one's soul that God did impart
How wonderful it is to be Your bride
In giving me a beautiful restart
Thank You Lord for the beauty inside

Thoughts: Although it is important to keep up one's appearance in making one feel good about themselves, more important it is to take care of one's being inside; after all, God gave us a soul to groom, as well. In this, as Christians, the Lord Jesus Christ is our spiritual guide and we are His bride. He is preparing us for our union in heaven with Him, maturing our spiritual being to a place of beauty when we are accepted into heaven. Jesus can take one's being from the worse past ever and blossom it into a beautiful present and future with Him. But it is up to us to accept this transformation from dormancy to beauty in preparing our beautiful souls for our union with Him. It's sad that in today's society, it seems, some live only for outward appearance. Even more sad, is how media plays a major role in the importance of this now outward appearance society making it hard to see beyond one's own sight. We enter this world as babies with the innocence of a beautiful soul. And, although some may have a tuff start in life, once one matures into adulthood, it truly is up to us to keep that beauty God gave us. Even if one is back and forth with maturing spiritually-as was I-one can still, at some point, make an effort to see beyond outward appearance in maturing one's beautiful God given soul. I've gone down some hard roads and it took a very long time for me to realize I need to be prepared for my reunion with my spiritual husband, Jesus Christ. In preparation, I knew my soul needed a revamping. I also know I have a ways to go before I am fully prepared to be the spiritual bride Jesus meant for me to be; however, I thank Him for the opportunity-beyond my past-to grow out of His love the beauty inside.

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
