Connie Marcum Wong Poet Sonnet

Prayers Birth Blessings

“My Philosophy is Prayers Birth Blessings”

I call on divine help when I’m in need
Friends who pray too I know their prayers are heard.
I have perfect faith, in the Lord I heed 
I am so grateful for God’s holy word.

I will not worry, yet have trust instead.
I bathe in His glory, I have no fear
I walk with the Lord as I look ahead.
I feel His presence and know He is near.

I’ve seen great results whenever I pray.
I accept His will, His best will be done.
Miracles happen in a wondrous way!
Blessings are birthed by the Lord’s only son.

When I bow my head and plead with prayer
I know my Father will always be there.

Andrea Dietrich January 9, 2022 at 10:13 AM hope this finds you well today. I need to take off for Best Buy and have them adjust this new laptop I am using. I need to do soup on my bed now. the surges bother me to much downstairs where I have to sit erect on a chair with nothing to lean back into. wish me luck getting my new laptop in top shape. have a wonderful day, dear friend

Judy Ball January 7, 2022 at 3:45 PM I agree Connie. He has promised in His Word that where two or more are gathered together in His Will it shall be done. Wonderful write. God Bless, JB

John Watt December 9, 2021 at 10:43 PM Connie, I love when faith and poetry intersect, and you have written a beautiful, inspiring sonnet of faith. 'I know my Father will always be there', this is his promise throughout the Scriptures. He speaks to us in his Word, and we speak to him in prayer; two aspects of faith you have captured here so lovingly. I know your faith has carried you through some dark days, and I'm so grateful for the miracles you have witnessed. Thank you for these encouraging words, saving this in my faves ~ John Connie Marcum Wong December 17, 2021 at 9:38 AM Thank you so much for Faving this sonnet John. I would be utterly lost without my faith. It is such a blessing to know help is forthcoming when ever I ask I receive. Mele Kalikimaka my friend. Blessings xxoo

Mele Kalikimaka my friend. Blessings xxoo

Jan Allison November 17, 2021 at 1:59 PM what a wonderful prayer Connie, thanks for sharing:-) hugs Jan xx Connie Marcum Wong November 26, 2021 at 2:03 AM Thank you very much Jan. I hope this little note finds you much better. I have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. We are all well in my family, including my stepson who is now able to move his left arm and make a fist. Before he could not move the left side of his body at all, so I am thrilled with his improvement. Blessings xxoo

Andrea Dietrich November 9, 2021 at 3:44 PM Connie, I do not know how i ever missed this one, but very well done, and you are showing your very spiritual and compassionate side here. I am not great with prayer. I can't pray for a long time and I don't even kneel. I just pray usually as i drive to work. I feel like my most fervent desire is not being answered, and still I keep praying. Wish I could be more like you! Connie Marcum Wong November 26, 2021 at 2:01 AM I truly feel my stepson was saved by prayers from everyone and I have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Especially for friends like you. Thank you Andrea. Your prayers will be answered but maybe in not the way you think. Blessings xxoo

David Smith November 4, 2021 at 12:30 PM Prayer is still I think misunderstood. I like to think sincere prayer given anywhere anytime by anyone is heard and an answer given. Answers can come in many forms even in a well penned poem. Feedback from my poems and probably from a number of other poets on soup leads me to belief that even our humble poems are written to answer someone's prayer. Take care David in NZ

Rico Leffanta November 4, 2021 at 11:26 AM Having outlived the comfort of husband and son, it is good you can still find comfort in life! Aloha! Connie Marcum Wong November 4, 2021 at 7:58 PM Prayers saved my stepson who died twice in intensive care. I know everyone’s prayers made the difference. I am so thankful to everyone for their prayers. Life is good. Blessings xxoo
