I was thinking on this scripture while writing this..I John 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and truth....We can talk it but if we don't do something tangible then it doesn't amount to very much..

Written in response to traveling west on a highway facing the sun setting behind dark gray clouds Come ride into life's uncertain sunset Where dark clouds may accumulate with dread Sun's only peeking through mostly ordained Giving life those moments when with wingspread One soars in the presence of the Son's love Feeling His voice tenderly saying come Feast at my table of gifts tasty, Dove Focus your eyes upon my beauty some Ride to life's sunset whatever circumstance It may present, hold my hand_understand This is new ground for me_hope accrescence In love of mankind for heading to promise land Uncertain skies streaked with gray, sun at bay Love can lift, sustain, ingrain us for day! accrescence means growth, continous growth Click on About This Poem Sponsor: Michael Falotico Contest:No Nams On This Love Contest

yes, hope accrescences. ever since i was a small boy i talked to God and i thought that i never got an answer. but He was answering.and now that i'm older God sometimes seems to speak english. i just had to look and listen. i have no doubt that God spoke to me on several occasions. with most of those occasions surrounding April. but the gift of His just talking to me is bigger than the whole world. if you can't see God in the future, look and you'll be sure to find Him in the past.
