Just a Speck of Dust

You’ll never be my heart or world, only my God can be He saw me as an embryo, and knew … who I would be God knew even sinews of me, before not much to see He’s my always, my everything, in joy … or agony He’s my strength when my weakest, my adrenalin for pain My hope, when disillusioned, and my sunshine … in the rain He’s my comfort when lost loved ones, my eyes when couldn’t see My faith when so disillusioned lost me … I use to be I’m nothing just a “speck of dust” among dust on the earth Forever grateful in me sees, a speck … he thinks has worth

Brava Barbara! Most beautiful your incorporation of scripture to upbuild and strengthen. It reads so touchingly and yet not preachy. Lovely :)

Poet Thomas, appreciate your appreciation of my love of scriptures, and your kind words. Believe me, I do get preachy. hope if you read one of them you will critique it, even if don't like it... or agree. Give honest reply. Thank you!
