Strength From the Lord

Title: Strength from the Lord

Solid and sure
True and tremendous
Realizing His Truth
Enthusiastically following His lead
Nurturing myself daily
Giving Him thanks
Trusting my soul
Heartfelt joy from Him

Forsaking all other gods
Respecting His word
Ordinary every day sinner
Magnanimously offering myself

Trusting
Him
Enthusiastically

Loving Him through prayer.
Ordinary
Respectful follower
Doing everything in His name

I knew since it was James' contest and all of his poems are pretty much religious, this one would take his eye.

Thank you much Kim. I am trying to get lots of poetry done before Monday when I am not only back to school, but back to two schools and I have never been to one of them.
