I just thank God every day that He is willing to save me from myself daily, and saved me once for Himself! TR I want to thank you Tammie, Kolleen, and tenderreed for the kind, and exaggerated, remarks about my "insight and gift". Although I don't believe all that, I do believe that as lame as I am, my one gift that God has blessed me with is "encouragement". I fall so short is so many other categories, but every time I feel led to write something, it is with the intention of possibly touching just one person out there. That is always my goal, and when I receive feedback from one person that anything I said helped them, then it is all worth it. We are put on this earth to either plant or water, but it is ALWAYS Jesus that brings the increase! God bless you three, and all other silent lurkers out there. We will all meet up in the air soon. Humbly Amen. How awesome that the Lord finds each of us precious in His sight! TR Humbly Irrelevant, you have a gift just like the writers of the psalms! Please don't ever stop! I love reading through your prose because you are able to encapsulate exactly what so many of us are feeling, but struggle to put into describable words. So thank you and know that each one of these poems has been a blessing to me especially. Remember that we are the "body" of Christ and each of us members have unique and needed functions to help each other in service to Jesus. We cannot all be the same or our effectiveness in spreading the gospel would be lessened. Imagine we were all the "eye" of Christ... weird. So keep writing as the words flow and keep posting... you never know how one of your poems may lead someone to Christ on top of the encouragement it brings the rest of us! :yes: Wow yhwhtalmidah (and others) -- I am truly humbled (and still irrelevant 😉 ) I appreciate it that my numerous postings are not cumbersome or annoying. Have a great day! Humbly
