God Is My Light

God is the deity I have been taught from young to respect, An all-powerful light, streaming down, which I can always detect. He is Omnipotent, a light of miracles, our almighty everlasting King, God is my light Supreme, and with, faith, hope and praises, To Him I sing. He is unconquerable, invincible, His love like a radiant light Shining within us, like THE Christmas star so calming And so celestially bright. God is unconquerable, absolutely not vulnerable His Omnipotence quells my fears, lights my way, He’s invincible. Light and good is our Omnipresent God, He is always with me, God for me is all knowing. I always try to follow the path of light and pray joyfully With all the faithful. Have your stairway to heaven clear, and your senses wakeful, Our Lord God our maker is omniscient, He is all seeing, His light is far-reaching, and for me ever comforting I turn to him with prayer in any hour of grief, His light Brings me peace, love and light all encompassing.

Jennifer, I loved this poem of faith from the first time I read it, loved that it garnered a POTD for you, and loved seeing it in your book Tea Break Poems. Happy to come back and revisit this gem at your site and give you my sincere thanks for sharing your poetic talents and encouragement so generously. "His love like a radiant light shining within us", indeed! Blessings and hugs ~ John

Hi Paul a beautiful comment and I wish you and your family the same, a peaceful, happy and blessed Christmas. Something weird is happening to my poem contest entries in the last month. Joseph, Silent One and Regina, all said that had my poem been entered it would have placed very well indeed, but all three told me it didn't show in the contest, I'm doing nothing different to what I was doing for the last two years. Warm regards, hugs and take great care with this 2nd wave sweeping over planet Earth. Jennifer.

Hi Gina, thank-you so much for the lovely comment. As for my poem not being entered, I don't know what i'm suddenly doing something wrong, what I don't know. Joseph and Silent One and you have told me that when they read my poem I would have placed high. Can you please go through the entering a contest on soup mail with me, as I said, two years now I have been entering but the last three didn't show and I don't know why! Bless you too Gina my dear friend. Jennifer.
