Some Names of God

Elohim, omnipotent power
Dominion over the universe
Every little bird and flower
Honor Him over the earth disperse
Their songs and blossoms intersperse

Alpha and Omega, Beginning
And the End, Ancient of Days is He
Why does man keep on his heels spinning
When a Savior did from beginning foresee
The Word would live with men and set free  

Inspired by Brian Strand's Contest # 225

The names we give may be many, but the perceptions of God's grace appear more universal. This is a lovely quintain, Sara. Wishing you success in Brian's contest! I returned from New Hampshire; my power is on again at home. Writing by candle light is very inspiring.

Thanks for dropping by..I know that you are glad to be back home and fully operational..I don't think that I could do the candlelight writing because of my eyes but then maybe I should try it to see if I could..Oh, I did not place in Brian's contest..He wants things he can read outloud so I am sure he would have stumbled over all the words..LOL..Sara
