Book excerpt: These poems are God's gift to me in my morning quiet time and I make of them a gift to you. I am so often amazed at the words that appear on the page as I write. I know these thoughts are not the ones I am used to living with day to day, and I worship God for His words revealed through me, a simple seeker who loves Him. In these pages you will hear God speaking to you. You will also hear me whining at God (seems like when my writing is all about me and my shortcomings, I must be whining). and there follows a section that is perhaps rhetorical, perhaps not. We can all gain from the words written here. May these simple and sometimes inconsistent thoughts bless you and draw you closer to Him.

Documentary poems explore which human lives are valued, how editorial decisions are weighed, what role the aid industrial complex plays in crises, and how medical myths and rumor can travel faster than microbes.

Book Synopsis God's Agenda - Religious Poems by : Richard I. Gold
Download or read book God's Agenda - Religious Poems written by Richard I. Gold and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God’s Agenda - Religious Poems: Vol 1 By Richard I. Gold God’s Agenda - Religious Poems contains a number of poems about God, Jesus Christ, our relationship with God, and our relationship with our fellow men, all in accordance with the Bible. At several points, two or more poems have the same title, but they were kept in because they are different poems. In other cases, several poems may appear to be somewhat similar; however, the focus is slightly different. Sometimes, a poem may require several readings to get the full meaning. At times, the meaning may be more than the author put into them and the reader may find some ideas which will benefit him or her. In all cases, the meaning of the poem should be taken to help build our faith and hope for the future, both in this life and when we have crossed to the other side. Remember, if we have a loved one who has passed on and is in the next life, they are in a better and more fulfilling place. It is well that we mourn for them, but this should be for our lack of seeing them, not for the fate of the loved one.

Book Synopsis Feelings of A Faith to Heaven by : Jeneen Nicole Buchanan
Download or read book Feelings of A Faith to Heaven written by Jeneen Nicole Buchanan and published by . This book was released on 2005-10-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing Feelings of a Faith to Heaven: The Inspirational Poems took 8 to 10 years to prepare because I was very ill and financially despaired, just by looking at my work it seems that it would take a month or two to write. Writing my poems took a lot of thought because each day was different for me but it didn't change my views about God. While writing my poems I questioned God about a lot of things that was happening to me and I still do, but I always get that old saying, "You should not question God about certain things.", I wondered, why not?, he is the reason why we all are here on earth. Other inspirations gave me some point of views in poetry; I use songs that I like to listen to, my family, and television. With the songs, I like to listen to gospel, Christian contemporary,pop,jazz and old melody altervetive 70´s and 80´s music. With my family, I love to listen to my grandma because she has a lot of wisdom and she knows more about life because she's almost approaching 100. My mother, she is strong in God which gives me a sort of strengthening in keeping God in my life and my brother who is a babe in Christ, he gives me admiration in keeping God in my heart. All these wonderful beings are true to my heart and my poetry. Television, in using it in my poems is educational because it gets me to know more about what is going on in our world, our being, our nature, and just life itself. Through that God used me to listen to all those things and I use them in my poetry to the best of my ability as I see them from day to day. My poems are simple but yet complicated in a way because some things are hard to translate and some are as simple as a wink. I try to write my poems as simple as I can for the readers so they can give a though or two about them. If not, maybe they can translate them to best of their ability and still give their thoughts and views about my poems. I wrote the poems because I love Jesus, I needed guidance from God, and to help or connect to people who want to find God, to get closer to God, to dream beyond their imagination, and to be delivered by God so that maybe one day they will be free. Also, to find themselves and the nature of life in how they see it as I did and still do. I hope and pray that readers will enjoy my work and feel to read it over again to be uplift. Enjoy the poems and happy reading!!!
