Tell of your journey came the request,
Your journey of Faith.
So I got up in Church
And I told them,
Told them about my beginnings,
My beginnings with The Lord
That lead to my belief.
My doubts were there,
Questions were asked,
But throughout my Journey
My Spirit was always with me.
The day that My Spirit touched me
Was the most momentous day.
In that small Chapel on Iona
My Spirit, God, touched me,
Touched my soul.
My belief has never since
Been in doubt,
My Spirit is in me,
And will take me to eternity.

- Comment from author about the poem: In our Church in this time of Epiphany members are being asked to share their Journeys of Faith with the Congregation, it was my turn yesterday and I of course finished with a poem, it was one of my 'Talking with God' poems. In my story I told them how important poetry was for me and that I had written 447 poems last year and would write about almost anything. After the service one of my friends said "I suppose you are going to write a poem about this?" - well this is that poem.

A fine write and witness Gold. The hymn in the clip is good, but it's 'orrible if not sung properly.
And a way to kill ofs some hymns - sing them in 'rounds' especially if not well known hymns. Causes utter chaos!
I dunno how many exactly I've written in the past year, but that's good going - average of more than one per day.
Well this got me thinking - I've just looked back and see that I made some 340 postings last year but many of those were multiple postings (like yesterday with 3 limericks in one go) so bearing this in mind am up there with you Andy - and this doesn't take into account a number of multiple couplet and one-liner postings and a few on fusions which I haven't copied into this main gallery.. Wow - where did they all come from.
Where indeed Michael, it is certainly surprising where they all come from.
AMEN ANDY ~ JESUS said ~ You will receive POWER when you are filled with the Holy Spirit and you WILL be my WITNESSES ~ In your Town ~ your COUNTY ~ your COUNTRY and wherever you happen to be ! Love Shine Jesus Shine ~ and your TESTIMONY ~ Thanks for sharing BRIAN
Thank you Brian, many find this hard to do in Church but it has never been s problem for me.
