Notes About The Poem

Giving Godly Grace

Going about our lives with giving hearts
Inspired forever by His unfailing love
Very eager to follow His perfect example
Incomplete and so forlorn without Him
Naturally desirous to spread good news
Giving and accepting the gift of prayer

Generous always with love and devotion
Obedience to the dear Lord in all things
Doubtlessly directing all our footsteps
Letting forgiveness prevail in our hearts
Yielding to peaceableness at all times

Gladly sharing with many His holy word
Revelling in eternal joy of knowing Him
All abuzz about His everlasting goodness
Communing with other people in His house
Exuberantly praising Him and worshipping

Evelyn, this is so lovely in its lowliness and humility. So many beautiful, memorable phrases - "letting forgiveness prevail," "yielding to peaceableness," "all abuzz" just to name a few. So happy for you for your win! Congratulations for such a grace-filled acrostic poem my friend.

The Bible says to forsake not the gathering of yourselves together.. When believers gather we share and in sharing bolster each other and we lift our voices in prayer and in song and praise. It's a sweet music to His ear and a perfume to His nostrils. Great job here Evelyn. God Bless, JB
