Giving Godly Grace

Goodness and grace, they come from above 
In the receiving comes giving, in love 
Very heart of God, love abounds in great measure 
In unmerited kindness, His grace is our treasure 
Not of ourselves, but to give as we’ve been given
Grace is a blessing to share, sent from heaven. 

Go then, give freely, and pray as you go
Only by His Spirit can true grace show
Daring to trust, be His hands and His feet
Led by the light of His love, thus repeat
Yielding to Jesus, His Will to complete. 

Gently then, give, as you honor His name
Ready to share, Christ exalted, proclaim 
All who receive His grace never forget 
Caring hearts heal a world of regret
Every moment, give others God’s very best.

"Giving Godly Grace" is like giving a Hallmark card - when you care to send the very best! Often hard, but always followed by the whisper of "Good and faithful friend!" Congratulations on your win! Blessings and prayers to you!

Dear Laura, your beautifully praiseful poem flows gracefully with glorifying emotion and imagery wrapped in wonderful rhythm and rhymes. "His grace is our treasure" - indeed, and so is your expressive and inspiring golden pen. Congratulations for your excellent win in Regina's contest. Warmest wishes, my friend.. ~Susan
