Congratulations on the win, Verna! I just stopped by your profile to congratulate you on your recent prize and then found you placed first on this blind contest! This is a beautiful spiritual poem and how much we need to dive deep in His Word to keep growing!

Congratulations on the win, Verna, your poem was beautifully written...

It was both inspirational, and deeply personal.

Indeed, "He's the lamp that lights my way, and by His hand I'm led"...
so true!

My Faith is never ending, and because of His love for me, not sometimes, but always...I feel safe...
It's not always easy living in a world where satan is trying to steal you away, but I can say with certainty, that will never happen...

May God continue to Bless you, my sister...Always!

Warmly,
Victoria

    Thank you, Eugene, for your review with congratulations. I am so glad you found it inspiring and uplifting. For the "white highlights," I copied it from somewhere I'd written it. Technology is not my gift!

This is an excellent poem for the contest. I'm about to vote on. I don't know if you're supposed to tell anybody who you vote for so I'm not gonna tell you who I'm voting for lol what a beautiful rhyming encouragement. There's no arrogance, but there is authenticity, I like that thanks for sharing. Embrace the love from above.

Very well done. The more you read the scripture the deeper you get and the more you learn. God talks to us and desires to turn us into meat eaters. He is the living water and the bread of life. Amen

A beautiful post showing genuine faith and a spiritual walk which aims to please Jesus and follow Him daily, whether the days are easy or difficult. It also speaks of the need for others to see by compassionate actions the reality of His presence and love. Best wishes for the contest.

Amen and amen, though God is perfect, as long as we have enduring faith in the cross of Calvary, we can enjoy the forgiveness that comes because of that eternal fountain that flows for us. Beautifully written, everyone needs to hear this, at least the declaration has then been made, beautifully written, good luck, blessings Roy
