Words are a Holy FireWords surged from the penstaining, soaking everything like spilled paint.Wood pulp thirsty in a stateof mad-eyed hunger.Paper ravenous for a glorious taste,elated to gobble up and digestthe things that time can’t erase.Don’t you know?Words are a Holy Fire,spread from the Word himself.Infused with the power of desireto transform, to turn over…

Conversion Poem About the Love and Grace of God
—
by
Conversion A Poem About the Love and Grace of God I began divided. Quite selfish with a heart hungry for evil yet filled with a deep longing brewing below the surface that never seemed fulfilled by anything other than you. So what was I to do – in love with myself and my selfish desires…

Letting Go Poem About Trusting in God
—
by
Letting Go Poem about Trusting in God Troubles slip through my fingers like sand as long as I cling to your commands, letting your Word direct my way – floodgates to block and keep me at bay. But it’s never easy to deny yourself entry, shackling your will under lock and key of the sentry.…

Fasting in the Desert A Godly Poem About Contemplation and Selfishness
—
by
Fasting in the Desert Strip yourself naked, unclothed of selfish desire. For it requires fuel to burn just as a raging fire. If all thoughts revolve around me and mine, how am I to hear the voice of God, how am I to feel the presence of the Divine? It’s by starving addictions that we…

Ashes Devotional Poem For Lent Ash Wednesday
—
by
Ashes The fire blazed and in the flames I gazed upon the fuel – the false self feeding this renewal. It is awareness that strikes the match and dispatches the light roaring into the darkness. Though this heat is intense, it only speaks of how immense your glory and goodness truly are. I fed myself…

Poem About Being Content, Humble, and Joyful
—
by
Great Expectations Joy can seize us in the lowliest of places, perhaps even easier than in the loftiest ones.

It’s easy to see…

Poem About Bravery and Courage
—
by
Bravery There’s no one braver to be in a world increasingly defined by a litany of achievements than the way God crafted me. Our contributions can’t be measured solely in dollars and money signs. For God’s work isn’t treasured by the market of mankind. Our souls become rich and our hearts light when we reject…

Planting – A Poem About Using Your Talents and Gifts For God
—
by
Planting These seeds I sow, I know not whether they’ll grow or remain dormant without ever seeing the light of day. Whether they’ll wither and die or if they’ll take root and thrive matters little; I am a planter – I leave the harvesting to You. I keep my heart open to the wind on…

Poem About Gratitude, Having a Positive Attitude and Blessings
—
by
No Quarter If I look, I’ll find 1000 complaints, but I’ve resolved to give no quarter to protest when I’ve been so blessed with gifts raining down from Heaven like manna. If I find my vision dull, dark, and gray it’s because I’ve chosen to stay blind to how lucky I truly am. Of course…

Poem About Evangelism and the Great Commission
—
by
Vessels of Love We are all vessels of love – jars filled with tealights, made to cradle your flame and bring it to the darkness. Our failure is not in missing the mark but in failing to believe we play a part in the chapters of your story. You’ve imparted more power to us than…

Godly Christian Poem About Change Growth and New Beginnings
—
by
Seasons of Change Changes of the heart take time. Casked, slow to perfection like aged wine. Wouldn’t it be easier if the Divine would just remake us overnight, beamed up into heavenly experience like a sublime, shinning light? Yet, true growth comes from the fight. For God always has his reasons, just unknown to us…

Walking On Air A Poem About Faith and Meaning in Life
