The Gift of You (Facts To Which I Believe)

Here are a few facts to which I believe
You must first come before you can leave

You must laugh to also cry
Many people live long after they die

The circle of life encompasses all seasons
Everything that happens, happens for a reason

If you never lose it means nothing to win
Crucifying Jesus is mans greatest sin

To truly change you must first regret
There is no truer love than that of a pet

With-in every heart is a blossoming seed
And love is something that we all need

The simple things should matter the most
There truly is a Father, Son and Holy Ghost

That the tiniest lie is the greatest sin
Everyone you greet you should greet with a grin


Satan attacks us through our mind
As ignorance keeps many people blind

The most heartwarming gift is one that is free
As the Lord loves you he also loves me

The thing I believe, I believe is most true
The world’s greatest gift is the gift of you


Dedicated to the reader. Never doubt
you are a blessing who deserves Gods
forgiving love.

The line that says satan attacks us through our minds reminded me of a verse in the Bible that says the weapons of our warfare are not carnel but spiritual for bringing down strongholds. Thanks for encouraging me on my poems. Leon

without a doubt he is the kind of God that forgives generously, let he who has not sinned cast the first stone, satan is on an all out war to gain the upper hand of God's people, we don't have to let him win, with God's help there is no stopping us, great write, take care D-nyce

Micheal this is absolutely wonderful. Just reading it makes me want to do something wonderful for someone. yes, we sometimes fail to realize that the greatest gifts are free. It's been a busy summer this year and just finished two weeks of holidays. I apologize to all for I have not been on the soup lately. Just been busy so when winter comes I sit more at the computer. Take care friends. God Bless Phyl

THE Michael Jordan?? Now I'm double honored to receive your nice comment on my first submission! After reading some of your poems, I think you have very good rhyming abilities and and a pretty solid religious base. I enjoy the sentiment and emotions you impart.
