First I would like to say that this poem is really very well written. It shows your profound faith and the belief in it. I can't say I have that, but that doesn't prevent me from enjoying your poem. Ulla:)))

    Thank you so very much for reading and reviewing my spiritual poem. I believe, God wants to have a personal relationship with everyone. I would invite you, and encourage you, to just be open to that possibility. I believe when someone is open to the possibility of a relationship with God, a unique connection will take place. Thank you for the five beautiful stars that you have awarded me! Embrace the love from above.

Really appreciated your words of faith in the Lord. 'When we are weak, then we are strong." God holds us in the palm of His hand and even if we don't agree with the outcome, He knows and sees far beyond what we can possibly imagine. How wonderful is our god. K xx

A pleasantly rhyming abcb poem that also posts a strong message of religious faith. There is no regular meter, but the strong rhyming makes up for that.

I like the use of the poem's structure to highlight three facets of that faith - basically one per stanza.

    Thank you so very much Steve. I'll tell you a secret if you won't tell anybody. I don't have the foggiest idea what meter is. I should probably learn so I could put meter in my next poem. LOL Thanks for not only reading But for reviewing my poem. Thanks for the five beautiful stars.

    Thank you Cindy for the comment on the picture. That is one of my identical twin granddaughters who are 12 years old now. That picture was taken the day before my daughter got married. The two girls were flower girls for their aunt's wedding.

He promoted it so that I might have the pleasure and divine words of God!
It is very well-written, without overdone verbiage... Speaking from the heart always touches another heart.
One suggestion in your second paragraph - I would not put a comma after
"my God is good, all of the time" it has more continuity and flow without the punctuation...my opinion and easily discarded *smiles*

Wow! This is such a beautiful hymn of faith! I wish it had been in the Faith poetry contest but I see this was posted last year. And what a great year to have this poem to remember God's goodness, trustworthiness, and His amazing love. Remembering His attributes is a great way to keep us grounded and in His peace. Thank you for sharing!

I sympathize on your missing your promotion window, and think FanStory should send a notification on the day of any voting booth you've entered. If not, I find myself having to check every single day, thereby falling down the Rabbit Hole of FanStory world, lol.

I loved this poem, admire your strong faith, and think you've worked rhyme and rhythm with grace. The only constructive criticism I would offer would be that were it not for your author/poet notes at the bottom, I wouldn't be able to clearly discern your three pillars. Frankly, I think you could leave the poem as is and just change your title, unless you really want to emphasize the number Three. If so, you probably need to rework the poem a bit, just to put understandable bullets next to 1) the goodness of God (Maybe by a simple "First...") 2) His trustworthiness and 3) the guarantee of His love.

But personally, I think the number is just your beginning structure, how you framed it in your own head before writing, and now that it's built, you can toss away the original scaffolding.

Nice job. Sorry I missed the vote.
