"Be like a flower ... gentle, quiet and humble" Quote _ Constance La France Gentle Like the breath of hope That stirs inside the heart Who believes, beyond a doubt That hope heals the sorrows, Nurses the feelings, the believing Cures and restores, rebuilds A joy that can only bring gentleness Quiet Like the beauty of faith That surrounds the soul With an amazing grace, a silence In the wind, the wonders within Those who remember to pray, Without a word – with only a heart Who knows that He still hears Listening to the prayers, Who flow so silently, so quietly Humble Like the wonder of love That rouses the music within, The bleeding dream, the faded grief The sweetness of a forever belief In the One who hears those appeals From lips, meek and mild – like a child Modest words, simple desires Love only knows the miracle of a life Who feels like it has been given blessings In hope, faith and love – it accepts humbly From the heart and soul, knowing The miracle of something far greater Than anything else on earth – anything Ever known or experienced… Thanks to Him, there is life everlasting Forever is the gift from the Creator of us all, The One who lasts through every sorrow, The One who brings hope for each tomorrow Thanks to Him, there is a light on inside us, A light that shines bright so the world Can see a part of His love – setting the soul on fire! Gentle, quiet, humble – He abides in those who know Those are words that ignite this unending desire To give back to the One who brings a love like no other love alive! He is the whole reason that love will always survive. Writing Challenge - B Quotes - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Constance La France May 22, 2023
