excellent use of enjambment to keep thoughts flowing from line to line
good alliteration in wondering, waiting, watching
what a wonderfully thoughtful and reassuring poem of faith

Very sparse and wise use of language. I could imagine others feeling a great deal of hope after reading this.

One TINY suggestion: Maybe you could be consistent about capitalizing words that refer to God. There were a coupe places I thought it should have been and wasn't.

I mean, I have to have something to offer!!

Hi Rdfrdmom2

Nicely stated poem dealing with the Grace God gives so freely. We are his sheep, and he is the shepherd.

Very well put, we cannot 'earn' grace, it is a gift, freely given to those who ask.

G'day Jan, this is a great little piece mate. It flows well and is beautifully presented as I have come to expect from all your work. I like the line, "not something to earn" How true. Cheers Fez

Very nice indeed, Jan. I liked this stanza the best:

"somewhere, deep inside,
His presence
quietly whispers"

Try not to work so hard and see you more often. Bob
