As I Look At the Moon

As I look at the moon prevailing after the rain I see God smiling at me, ready to tickle my brain… ...while offering to me His peace-filled wisdom of great gain. As I gaze at the moon with its gleam of hope and comfort*, There’s God Who’s attentive to my heart's requests of any sort… …presenting Himself as my steadfast support! As I stare at the moon brightening the sky, God reaches down to me in fellowship-nigh… …and He assures my soul for a heavenly fly. As I watch at the moon ruling the night with serenity, God uplifts me by His security... … indeed, I thank Him with fervent faith throughout eternity!
*Isaiah 66:13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I (God) comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. June 13, 2018 6th Place, "End of June 2018... Premier" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand; judged on 6/27/2018.

Beata, I enjoyed reading and then re-reading a poem by a poet(ess) who doesn't just believe in God, but realizes that faith is all about the personal relationship with the One Above, who is ever-so-close to each and every one of us----if only we acknowledge His Presence and let Him in, so to speak. ...Congrats, as well, Beata, on your placement in the contest! Best wishes, Gershon
