This was a good read, L Raven. I think it makes a lot of sense and gives one pause to think about the words. Good flow and word usage. Nice job and keep writing.

What an uplifting message, reminds me that "Faith without works is like no Faith at all"...There is much to be learned as we study the word of God, but the lessons taught must become a true part of our lives...God, is Love...truly in a world filled with so much distraction, its our loving God that allows His lessons to really become a part of our lives...I enjoyed this poem, and its message, Thanks for sharing...Blessings...
Warmly,
Victoria

Hi Victoria, I have decided to read the entire bible straight through...I have a friend his knowledge of the words in the bible is amazing...now as I read when I don't understand something...I just read him a few lines...and he can tell me the entire story...it truly helps me understand what I am reading...I just told Roy...the Bible is our autobiography...it is path we are suppose to be talking...and when it's over...if done right...there is eternal life...but just reading isn't good enough...you have to walk the walk...and God wants us to show that amazing love he has to us...to all...lately my pastor has been yelling the words out...LOL...so I'm on my way...thank you for a wonderful review sweet girl...and Blessing to you as well...and you are so welcome...love Linda xxoo

The study of God's word, actually made me a better person, It's a never ending study...I've read the Bible straight through and each time I understand what it is we must do, to actually call ourselves a "Christian"....God Bless you my friend, whsat a friend we have in Jesus....Love xxoo
Comment from Douglas Paul
I totally agree with the point of view you have expressed in this poem. Belief in God is of limited value unless you act on your beliefs and modify you behavior accordingly. We said, my friend

Comment from Miss Sherry
What a simple and beautiful poem. Your artwork enhances your wise words.
Many pay lip service to Him, but real believing is getting in the trenches and doing His work and following His laws. I love this poem, it is dear and filled with wisdom.

Hi Sherry, boy sweet girl you are soooo right...I have learned lip serve to God is not heard...unless with true faith and belief...following His words and laws...and my pastor makes that very clear...LOL...he's not a big yeller...but when he wants to gets something across...he does...LOL...thank you so much for a wonderful review...love Linda xxoo

Comment from royowen
Yes Linda, it's true, belief, like faith is active and alive, combined with love, is something that's done, as James says, "I will show my faith by my works" of course it's the faith that saves, but the works spring from the faith. Well done, thanks for the reminder dear girl. Well done, blessings, Roy

Hi Roy, it's to know the words...they are what made me want to prove my love to Him...there is someone who put on that path...I think I was jealous of his knowledge of the Bible...I could get stuck...and read a few lines to him...and he would tell me the entire story I was reading...it really helped me understand what I was reading...so I decided I was going to read the entire Bible for myself...and as I read...I found there is so much more to the Bible than I ever thought there was...and he told me that as well...the words are not just words...they were written to be our journey in life...obeyed...to learn of Jesus/God...the Bible is meant to be our autobiographies...and at the end...our eternal lives...I will always be grateful to the guy who put me on the right track of faith...and for the amazing love of Jesus...thank you my sweet friend for a wonderful review...blessings to you as well...love Linda xxoo

I've never regretted depending on God for revelation, like you He opened so much wisdom, not that I'm wise, but in God we are. Bless you dear girl,

LOL...I think your pretty wise...smiling...bless you my friend...xxoo love
Comment from godlucifer
one's belief for love is one's belief for god. love is a belief of god rather we like or dislike. may our words phrase him to like or dislike our belief in the love we have for him. your poem was written with a true statement,statement of words. thanks for the read. "your so vein" means mood or humor.
your so vein

Good evening, Twosocks
It's somewhat difficult for an atheist like myself to make a constructive comment about Godley things sometimes, but to know that you feel as if acknowledging your god is the same as saying 'I love you' is quite lovely.
Meaning it, when we say this to someone we adore must come from deep within us, otherwise, as you rightly say, it means nothing at all. I believe you do love your god very much indeed.
kind regards

Hi Twilight, I'm still not giving up on you my so sweet friend...never say never...I just know your an angel...sigh...thank you sweet lady for a wonderful review....smiling big...love much you...Twosocks... xxoo

I do try to do good things. For example, I welcome the homeless for Sunday dinners if the weather's particularly bad and hand them a freshly laundered towel to take into the bathroom so that they can take a hot shower.
I support kids in other countries to better their education and I most certainly don't hold a grudge against those fleeing their countries and wanting to settle elsewhere on the is earth of ours.
So I may not have any Gods, but to be frank, I wouldn't want one.
It divides me from my fellow man...

I knew you were an angel...perfect one...you have a wonderful heart...hard to find these days...smiling back at you...much love...xxoo

Comment from Teri7
Linda, This is a very precious and a very true write you have done. It is meaningless unless our heart is truly in it. What is so neat is that God can tell when we are not being honest with Him. I love your words that are so true and the imagery you used very beautiful. love and blessings, Teri

Comment from nomi338
True fait should lead one to act on that faith. One of the best ways to act on the faith that God is real is to do the things he wants us to do: Love him and to show love for our fellow creatures. What this means is no more wars, no more cheating, no more hatred, racial, gender or sexual orientation. Your wonderful poem shows a great understanding and acceptance of bible truth. Congratulations.
