Hi Pat. Your poem is lovely as well as the picture. I always love reading your posts as they are close to my heart. It always gives me a lift. Our precious Lord wants to have our hearts desires, so we can be happy. So we must do our best to make Him happy. XX Miss Sally

Comment from Father Flaps
Hi Patricia
I enjoyed your poem.
"I will rest in the Lord and wait patiently."
When I read this line, I thought you might like to hear this song by Wendy & Mary. Wendy is married to my favourite gospel artist, Don Francisco.
Here's the link:

I have used it on more than one occasion back in the 80's and early 90's when I gave concerts locally. It's a great song. Wendy is a fabulous guitarist, by the way. She and Don have Rocky Mountain Ministries.
The other song that I thought of as I read your poem was "Seek Ye First".

Thanks for sharing this poem and your faith.

A lovely declaration of faith in a firm free verse prayer. I read my Jesus Calling book every day, and this reminds me very much of that activity. A good spiritual message about trusting in The Lord.

dawny I have a couple of art programs on my computer. I basically take photographs, Then work with the art programs to make them look like art and not photographs. I am glad you enjoyed the poem.

Thanks Kat for the nice review.
I wrote a poem using the words in a contest, but hot entering the contest as I don't want to spend the bucks.
Here are the words and the poem
Flexible, present, air, dipper, lilac, fir, door, spacious
Spacious Night Sky
The spacious nighttime sky
With no moonlight
revealing the big dipper
And the air was still,
The fragrance of the lilac
And the fir tree close
By my back door
Thrilled my sense of smell.
All that was present
Captured all my senses.
It was getting very cool
So I arose.
Feeling as if my knees
Were not flexible
I went into my kitchen,
And fixed a cup of hot tea.

Your poem is great. When I write a poem that has words to use, I usually use them in the order given. I like to make things more difficult for me. LOL
I generally try to post my poems with FanStory as they don't charge to join their contests. When members set one up you have to pay to join it and more to promote it.
-
I don't wan to enter pay contest with no guarantee of winning, it is like gambling to me.
-
I haven't won anything for years.
-
I won this contest. paid $5 for it and won $20

I thought you didn't join contests. Congratulations for winning it. You made your five bucks three times over.

I don't enter often, but it was to be a fiction piece that started, The last time I saw Charlie, and my mind immediately had the story, took about 7 minutes to write it.

I wish I could think and write that quickly. I always write and rewrite things over and over again. LOL

Thank you for reminding us of the promises of God. He will take care of us in every area of life. All we have to do to have His favor is to trust Him and do good toward others

Thanks for the review. I am sure you recognize this is based on Psalm 37. The fret not line reminds me that God will take care of those who do evil and I don't need to bother with trying to get even with those who hurt me.

I recognize the line and I try to live by it each day--Erica

He will give you the desires of your heart...the trick is to study His words and align your heart to His...I used this phrase when someone asked what I got for Christmas...the desire of my heart was a family photo ..the kids are spread out and it was tricky but God granted my wish
God bless

Thanks Jenny for the nice review.
Comment from gypsycaravan
Very pretty artwork to accompany your work. The presentation might look better if you formatted it with a middle block instead of left line-up. Then the excess words wouldn't spill off to the right making it look a bit messy. The message is lovely.
