Hi Sally, not only is this a beautifully written acrostic. A form I've tried my hand on a couple of times. But it also shows your deep-rooted faith. I wish you the best of luck in the contest. Ulla xxx

Hello Sal,
How have you been? Things have really slowed down for me recently, but that's just one of the side effects of growing old. LOL
Your poem really touched my old heart, especially in the last two lines. The seed of God was planted in me when I was just a small boy in a small country church many years ago. And, it still continues to grow today.
I hope this review finds you and your family all in good health and doing well.
Take care of yourself and good luck in the contest my friend...Bill

This is a beautifully penned acrostic poem about your spirituality. Too often these seem stilted, but yours flows together quite naturally. Best wishes in the contest, my friend~Debbie

Comment from WalkerMan
This is a splendid tribute to your faith -- what it means to you and the daily comfort and assurance it brings you. The acrostic works effectively, the entire poem reads smoothly, and the illustration is beautiful. Superb.

Dear Mike, thank you. I appreciate the time and thoughtful reviews you always leave me. I am overwhelmed by this six as this is not the type of poem I'm very proficient in yet. This is only my second attempt. I guess the content is what makes anything worthwhile and this does have my true heart for the Lord within. Thanks for seeimg past the flaws and for the generous stars. Sending you my best today as always,
Sal :)

You are most welcome, Sal. What makes this post outstanding is your sincerely expressed depth of faith in relatively few words. Fitting those words effectively into an acrostic is a plus. -- Mike
Comment from lyenochka
Beautiful poem in faith done as an acrostic! I love that you focus on God's faithfulness which gives you the absolute assurance of your righteousness in Him. I liked the gentle occasional rhyming and my favorite lines were:
Vested in my eternal success,
and
Enveloped am I in God's grace,

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hi Sally. This is a wonderful poem. It obviously meets the standard for an acrostic. But the content is the treasure. It is a personal testimony that doubles as an artistic work. You did well! Z

Dear Z, thank you so much. How kind this is and just overwhelming. I am seeimg stars!! I appreciate your wonderful review and for stating that the content was the real treasure. Thank you for that. I had difficulty with this one for some reason in advanced editor and just felt like it was time to push the 'end preview button.' I felt confident the most important things were in the body of work as you stated.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sally :))

Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
I think we all need reminders like the one you've written. It's been hard with my uncle fighting, and losing, his battle with cancer. And then knowing my rapist will probably die fast and with no suffering. It's hart to trust God will do his end and prosecute. Sometimes I just need a reminder to trust. Thank you.

Thanks you so much for the marvelous review and shower of stars, flylikeaneagle. It means so much to me. More than that, this poem brought you close to me and for that I am thankful. I have such a wonderful group of Christians in my fan base and those who are seeking the Lord, too. It's wonderful to know you by name. I am blind as I may have mentioned, and hope to catch up with your fine works of poetry. I am a novelist and short works writer, as well. Sending you my best today and blessings in Christ,
Sally Law xoxo

Your acrostic is well-written and joyously spiritual. You have poetically
described how a person meets the Lord, receives the Spirit, and lives trusting in Him.
