That's a truly beautiful poem of your testimony of faith, retracing your past experiences, and looking forward with confidence to a secure future with Him. Probably a winner. Best wishes!

    Thank you, Chuck. I hope I haven't let God down but I often feel I have. Still, he seems to love me, since he calms my fear and comforts me. I appreciate the six stars.

    Always remember, His love is unconditional. We all sin and come short of the glory. However, we repent and He loves us just that more.

From all you have shared from your life, I know you are a woman of strong faith. Your mom taught you from the start and then that miracle in the tornado confirmed how God answered your prayers! Well done with your faith poem! Best wishes in the contest!

I only question "I need to know when my time comes" because I don't think you "need" to know because I know you know!

I understand, and always testify that I am unsure why I remain alive when I could have easily been interred more than a few times. I end up thinking He still has something I need to do.

This delightful, rhyming verse reads fluently and sincerely. I remember the incident in question when you were picked up, I think, by a tornado and miraculously brought down unscathed.
There's only one line which stumbles a bit with the stress falling on 'my' and the last syllable of 'heartaches.' Perhaps this as a suggestion:
Throughout my life I've felt (H)is love(,)
His strength to help my heartaches cease.
But an excellent verse and strong contender! Well done and good luck, Beth! Debbie

My death may be near or it may not. I do not fear when my God is in control. And when that time comes, we will be in a land much different from this one. Rebellion was taken out of it. God has great plans for us.

I believe you have a winner.
I love the rhyming, the flow and the message.
Now, if I could only repeat that until I have one hundred and fifty characters to make a legal review.
Good luck in the contest.

Excellent poem. I love the sound. Good rhymes and meter that are not forced. The Faith theme is perfect.

Well done!

Thank you for sharing this faith contest entry with us. I enjoyed reading. Yes, it's our parents who plant the seed, and it's God who waters it. It's us who eventually accepts God. Good luck with the contest.
