God's Kind of Poetry

GOD'S KIND OF POETRY

I love you, don't you feel?
Have faith. Trust me.
I am here, I am real.

I love you 'til the ends of the earth
   to the bottom of my heart..
From minute dusts, I adjust
   forming you with my own bear hands
Appointing you to be on high command
   over animals, plants and all others I planned

I love you, don't you feel?
Have faith. Trust me.
I am here, I am real.

I trust you much I let you run and roam
  I got upset you chose lure than obedience
But, I love you so so much that I am still here
   a father waiting for you to come home
Arms spread wide ready to embrace you tight
  Aching to show you more of my love and light

I love you, don't you feel?
Have faith. Trust me.
I am here, I am real.

I know you have been on trash or myriad tests
  to which sometimes you're on bended knee with tears 
Asking; Swearing; Doubting me when bad surprises
  cascade soak then thoroughly bathe you...
Don't you know that while you are in this...
  
I am listening to your shake and tremble
   I am there next to you, sobbing too..
I am hoping for you to remember ME.
   I am hoping for you to call my name.
As I am eager, so eager, to share your burden
   I am ardent, so ardent, to make you smile.

I love you, don't you feel?
Have faith. Trust me.
I am here, I am real.

I love you much that if needed I will sacrifice
 With all I am, I will draw you nearer to me
Not with golden armory of might or power
 but with the Spirit, I have sent to be with you
to remind you that I am here, always with you.
 Just don't you forget to seek me and my Words.

I love you, don't you feel?
Have faith. Trust me.
I am here, I am real.

*** inspired by one of my favorite Christian song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j37Oz1lmnfU 

and Romans 8:37-39:

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

"I am eager, so eager to share your burden..." to me, that's the affirmation of the mighty love and guidance Olive. We can't see or feel what we do not believe. Facts and love and marvelous truth can be upon us and still we be grossly ignorant if our hearts are too dumb. Truth bears no fruit for those unprepared to eat of it. Your relationship with God is warm and inspiring. I'm sure that God is proud of your poetry Olive...J.A.B.

What you said is true...but the good thing is God is so patient to us and faithful that He will do everything for us....:) though one verse in the Bible telling us "harden not your hearts...:)

Hello Olive, .. Can I call you, Olive Oil, since you like calling me Lollie Linda, in which I enjoy... :) Hey, I'm having such a long day, I got a few contests, I'm putting out tonight, so here I am wondering what kind of poem you have for this contest... I love how you imply your faith here. A wonderful poem, and entry. Good luck...LINDA

:) this poem is a two way poem... If you see it in a one point you will say that it's all about me but on the other hand it may also be God's own poem--- what I mean is that God is love .. In each stanza, I portray God as a Creator, all powerful, a Father, a Friend, all merciful, the Holy Spirit by the 2 lines in my repeating refrain and lastly the Son who sacrificed His life..:)

Faith and trust are the main ingredients of this touching lyrical write; we are formed by His "own bare hands" the same hands that are always available to carry us through difficult times. Take care and hugs // paul

When I come across the contest, I don't know where to start... Then comes this muse while I reflect that from the beginning He has shown us His love, it is out of love that we are made, out of his unfailing love from our faults: He saved us.. Around, it speaks of His love and from so many verses in the Bible He says his like to music hence I chose it in lyrical form..:)
