Divine Decree

when crops are graces
can weeds claim to be the same
both have their places
in the book of god whose aim
is change of heart and not shame

Congrats on your winning work in the contest. I appreciate the faith based message. Yes, Jesus died so that all can be forgiven not condemned. Sara

The cursed land gives us weeds. We fight them all the time but someday the curse will be lifted and the earth be what God intended it to be. Congrats on this winner. Way to go. Thanks for stopping by my page. Sara
