In my heart, there is the assurance that His grace is bigger than my worst, greater than my hurts, more pure than my simplicity and more amazing than my soul’s intensity. In my heart, I know that His grace brings my life its most blessed gift, saving from the depths of misery – by poet Praying for the dream, the hope, the grace. Praying for the light to shine like it has always seen, the music that fades beneath the sounds of praise, the endless sea of unshed tears, calmed by the love, who is His blood bathing me… Praying for the gentle, the kind, the weak. Praying for the sensitivity to see through shadow’s weeping, the inspiration to always reach out in faith, believing, He is who He said He is – salvation’s embrace, the King of Kings, the abiding love that always sees, love that comes alive inside the heart who believes… Praying for the sanctity – His blessedness, falling all through my prayers, purity and holiness, wisdom peppered with the colors of sacredness, smiling flames of beautiful, amazed by the ways, He silences the dark, brings hope to the heart, reminds each of us that His love shines the light, His love is the truth – His love is the flood of blood, pouring over the soul who He will surely make whole…. Praying… when I am weak, when it’s hope that I seek, Praying… when I can’t feel the joy in my soul, Praying… when I see the storms instead of the shelter, Praying… when it’s love that I’m pursuing, with a heart who is assured that, with Him, I am certain… Love is the light that is burning away the fears, the tears, the years… Praying for the strength, the courage, the wisdom, Praying for the assurance of grace that never ends, Praying for the faith to keep believing, Praying for the hope that I need to see Him, Praying for the love that only He could have put in me, Praying for the chance to share this feeling, this belief… Praying that I’ll always hold onto the One… who makes a way for me, through the worst that comes, brings me victory when I feel like giving up, promises me that His love will cover me in grace, when I feel lost and alone, like I can’t go on. Praying for the love that only He could have born, when He gave me this hope that lives in my soul, this hope that knows – He is the love that makes me whole, He is the wonder and the promise… He is the eternal, the One who makes the winds silent, soothes the darkness with a light, promises that love this alive can never fail. Praying for this love that created me and stays with me, through the good and bad, the happy and sad, through everything that I face – I have His amazing grace! Praying, always praying that you will find this love that assures me, wherever I am, whatever I experience, there is someone I can always depend upon. this man, in my heart, He is the answer to my every prayer, and I’m always praying that He stays beside me, ever abiding, where I can feel the wonder of His grace, the love that makes a way, the joy that never fades, the reason for this pure, sweet faith!

such a faith-filled poem, Gina. I especially liked: this man, in my heart, He is the answer to my every prayer, and I’m always praying that He stays beside me, ever abiding, My grandmother always said, 'be prayerful about all things." She was serious and modeled that for me. Your faith comes through in these inspirational words. Have a blessed day, hugs, Sara

That’s a beautiful quote, Gina!… the inspiration to always reach out in faith, believing, He is who He said He is – salvation’s embrace (and more)…likewise I remind myself: “ He silences the dark, brings hope to the heart, reminds each of us that His love shines the light…) Great writing and faith shines through your gift. Hugs-a-million ~ Kim
