My First Poem...

As I sit here on a rainy day in rural Kansas town I thought I would add a poem I had written that day. Today is time to let go of my fears and start to get known. My talent was given to me by God and is not to be wasted. Today is the day. I would appreciate your honest comments about what you think about it.

I did not go to church today so
I picked up my Bible and began to pray

I pointed my finger as I opened the book
Where the page landed I took a look

The Gospel according to John is where it begins
It was about Christ who died for us to be forgiven our sins

Because I was feeling quite guilty for being just lazy
The answer was there and everything went hazy

 John 8:14 "You judge according to the flesh" is what Jesus had said
"I judge no one", this was my answer as I forged ahead

I  had my answer from God  and it was heaven sent
Every word was his way of giving me a special hint

Not going to church was forgiven and not a total loss
As long as I remember that he died for me on the cross

I decided to write a poem of gratitude to my higher power
The gift of talent that he gave to me is like a blooming flower

I know with his guidance, strength and unconditional love
He gave me his pure sweet love with a message from a snow white dove

Being a human on earth there is only one way that I can give back to him
By using my God given talent and not giving in

There are signs from God everywhere and it comes many a way
Try to follow Gods will and do not forget to pray!
