Soul

What is it in the nature of your soul
that wills me to want to know more?
A God-annointed angel will  know
who by His hand made you soar.

You were cradled at earth’s conception
with gifts of light in this mortal sphere.
Thus to all you touch you give direction,
heavenly inspiration is unfailingly near.

That much I know beyond any doubt 
it is as certain as God's Son is alive.
It reveals in truth what you are about—
celestial brilliance to ensure we thrive.

You are ever kind to me, Connie. Please know of my gratitude. Yes, every mortal has the light of Christ. It's a tragedy so many do not see it (but, of course, some have never heard of Christ). Hugs, always, Paul
