('Put thou thy trust in God')

Ephesians 1 v.19-20

*********

Here now be encouraged

You are blessed, privileged

A child of God, if believing

In Jesus for each thing

 

Each thing of salvation

Open to each nation

In you the Holy Spirit dwells

And of God's glory tells

 

He be the same power

That God wrought in that hour

When Christ His Son He raised from dead

He now our living Head

 

Exceeding great His power

Come seek Him for a shower

Or an outpouring, what your need

He shall meet full indeed

    I wrote this to fill in a 'missed page' in a notebook. It turned out to be a powerful little piece, I think! We all need 'oomph' but it's not human effort.

    Orchi,

    ...“oomph”...
    is needed...especially today on September 11th! Just think of me attending today’s memorial along with a few thousand others!
    Thank you for the share!

          I genuinely hope I get to see the end of the world some day. But hey, here's to living a little longer eh? Glad to see your still sticking with it my fine furry friend. May your Lord bless you with the will to keep writing as you do. It truly is a wonderful thing to come back from an absence to see you still writing.

            Thanks Nicholas. I obtained a watchdog now - Fido! He barks severely at anyone not marking up poems as 18+ if they should be! Much more of this and we'll go barmy! heehee.
