The following quotes contain my own story:
What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance. (Luke 15:4-7)
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
even when we were dead in trespasses, made us a live together with Christ....
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (Ephesians 2:4-5,8-9)
I am that stray sheep that the Shepherd sought and found. I am that sinner that Christ died for, now forgiven and redeemed by Him, and claimed as His own.
I love poetry and I like to try my hand at it. I’m here to learn and to get as much constructive criticism as possible. Thanks to everyone who has read and commented on my work; it means so very much to me. It's always encouraging to find new reviews on my pieces- whether they bring good news or bad
because it means someone cared enough to lend a hand.
Hoping to improve!

I decided to tell you a little bit about life on our street... I hope you can picture it. Maybe you will experience a little “culture shock” reading it.

My mind was in turmoil. He could see it on my face. Solicitously he asked if everything was alright. I knew it was no use trying to fool him, and suddenly I was telling him what was on my mind -haltingly, because my mind was in such a turmoil that I couldn’t even get my own thoughts straightened out.

Echo de menos a Mamá. Su paz, su calma, su cariño, su amistad.... Poder hablarle de las cosas que más me importan y saber que me escucha, que le importa, que me quiere. El consuelo meramente de su presencia, sin hablar de sus abrazos y sus palabras en los momentos duros de soportar. Su paciencia, su buena voluntad, sMarch 6, 2009, In Family, Friendship, Journal, Longing, Nonfiction. 1,000 words. → 3 comments, Add one?

LongPatrol on December 23, 2008How's it going? I haven't been on much. Doing other things. But we're starting a poetry section in English, so maybe I'll get on more.
Merry Christmas to you and your family! And a happy new year, too. -
CelticQueen : I just love it when I find a fellow believer! on November 25, 2008I haven't read your writing yet, but I'm getting ready to just that. In the meantime, it's so good to meet one who believes as I do - that Jesus Christ is Lord and Lord of all. It's good to meet you!

LongPatrol on October 5, 2008Hi! I hope that you're having fun on this site. I know that I am, and while you're on, it's even better!
I love your poems. So far, my favorite poem of yours in the Whismical March. I'm not sure what a silver almond tree is, but I love the poem!
Keep writing and keep in touch!
