Precious Child

The day you were born

Heaven smiled

A work of art

A precious child

And from that day forward

Until the end of all time

He’s never stopped seeing you

As that precious littllittle child.

Challenge
Religion/God/Gods etc.
I want your thoughts on religion and God or if there are multiple gods, or why it doesn't exist, etc. Explain why you believe or don't believe in it, and just share your ideas! Please be respectful & no profanity, but I hope there will be some interesting discussions. Don't forget to tag me, but please no mass tagging on your post! Thank you ;)

Little Lamb

Nature is an artistic expression and reflection of it's loving creator and savior. The rocks silently cry out when I am at the bottom with them, "all is grace. The lilies of the field sing, "you created me as an object of your gaze". A newborn child is cradled with affection, not because of good deeds done, but because of a parent's love undone. My Savior, Jesus Christ, loves me as I am not as I should be. He loves you as you are, not as you should be. He is your defender. When religious institutions require you to meet a certain standard in order to be used and acceptable, do a 180 and fall into the arms of the One who hates their rigid requirements as much as you do. His sheep hear His voice, and they know it's Him. May you hear His voice, sweet little lamb. To Him, your face is beautiful, and your voice is sweet.

Serenades

Serene songs satisfy souls

Sensitive sounds silence storms

Soft symphonies strengthen spirits

Sonic signals search space

Sorrow stills

Sadness simmers

Sunshine streams

Skies sail

Search

Stop

Stand

Stay

She shall sing

Sweet serenades

The Promise

Number the stars

I dare you to try

Each one a promise

A symbol of life

Radiance advanced

Through light years it sailed

To a foreigner in a land

The promise prevailed

Fast forward through time

City scape hugs the sky

Two towers give way

Steel-beamed cross still did rise

For in the darkness

The light still did shine

A heavenly country

All pilgrims will find

Before Earth’s creation

Til the end of all time

The promise goes on

So let hope like steam riserise
