Beata Agustin Poet Quatrain

Tribute To Orphanage Moms As Life Builders

Life building is your calling
upon faith strength, prevailing
trusting God Who’s propelling
your mission in care-giving.

With the Lord propping your zest
patience you show by love’s best
steadfast though challenges test
praying for progress that’s blest. 

Life builders … such a great role
to raise kids well is your goal
mentoring to heart and soul
divine task along hope’s pole.

God surely beholds your deed
fulfilled by His grace indeed
as you sow compassion’s seed
that meets every orphan’s need.

As parents to the fatherless
and moms to the motherless
your good works nevertheless
will never become fruitless.

Building lives midst loving light
you serve as Moms day and night
guiding children to use truth-might
while in Christ you delight.

Thanks for your kind engagement
surely precious commitment
dear and priceless involvement 
beyond earthly investment.

*Colossians 1:4 …We heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all…

Bj Legros Kelley May 3, 2022 at 8:17 PM Beata, this is an amazing, lovely poem to the mothers of whom you speak, there are so many children who do not have a biological mama who can give the love and nurture, either by death, separation, or an illness of one kind or another. Those who are called to nurture as moms in these children's lives are blessed beyond measure. It is a calling <3 I love your poem with all my heart and will fav it without a doubt! God bless you, thank you for this entry into our contest! Congratulations! <3

Bill Baker May 3, 2022 at 7:53 AM A lovely heartfelt Quatrain, Beata. I love the scripture reference listed. It's a tribute to both those with faith to love others and to those that had the loving mindfulness to acknowledge the loving spirit within others. A great entry for the contest, Beata' Smiles ~ Blessings, Bill
