A very well-written poem about the forgiveness of God whenever we have a chance to ask for forgiveness for what we have done knowingly or unknowingly. His mercy is always fair and forgiving.

A great poem for the God's Appreciation contest. This piece is just lovely. It flows just like a prayer. I felt your connection to God throughout. Good luck with the contest!

This is a wonderfully written acrostic and a good entry in the contest. I especially liked the first line pleading with the Lord to rid your soul of evil and the cleaning of your spirit. We all should want that for our lives. Patricia

My youngest son in understandably the one who could care less for what goes on in his families life. He only thinks of himself like he is the only one who counts. His children are suffering due to this and their is nothing I can do about it.

Such a beautifully crafted acrostic here -- the emotion of your contrition and the acknowledgement of your humanity are done such that they do not stand before the reader so much as pull them into the write....just great job! :) Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest! :) Yvette

I liked reading your poem. Usually I am not a fan of faith poetry, it's not that I'm not a faithful person, but It's more of I have to be in the mood for the read. Reading your poem was a change in pace and I thought it was well written,

This is a beautiful poem speaking of repentance and praise to the Lord, knowing that our deeds are evil... with forgiveness comes praise! Amen!

This is my first sighting of you. I am, however, new to FanStory. This is wonderful faith-filled poetry. Love this! So tender with repentance, showing your contrite heart towards God. He will most assuredly accept such an offering. He leaves the ninety-nine to fetch the one! This I know.
Kindest regards to you and yours. I hope to see more of your fine work.
Sally
