Stand In the Gap ~ acrostic
©copyright 2006 Bonita M Quesinberry, R.C.
Pentopaper, who is Karen, was the first to stand for me,
Even when others declared this pen guilty of blasphemy.
Now it is my turn to stand in the gap whilst praying for her,
That each prayer shake off those demons of MS and pain in her.
Oh, mighty conquerors we are, for in us is Jesus Christ
Prepared to add His strength and armour for so little a price;
Always at our side to loose the pressure of those painful thorns.
Precious friend and sister, speak out against those fiends of dead ends,
Employing thine domain in our Saviour's name; our best of friends.
Rest, then get up and know that to thy will they must ever bend.
~~All my love and prayers unceasing,
Sister-in-Christ B♥nnieQ

This is a great piece and Karen will love it.
I know of the time you speak in the first two lines, and I also know that she did indeed stand up for you.
Thought we are on different paths you and I we share a commen love for a true and remarkable friend in Karen.

AWWWWWW (((((Bonnie))))) This is so very beautiful and really touched my heart. I am so blessed to have such a dear, loving, smart and talented friend such as yourself in my life, and truly thank God for such blessings! You have brought a smile to my heart! Thank you is nowhere near enough for such a powerful and touching acrostic, and for being YOU! Karen

Benevolently gracious and thoughtful
Ditto, as well, to what ‘theLordReigns declared.’ Although, I haven't the pleasure to meet Karen (as yet). Even so, the Spirit knows what to pray; and when two on earth agree, then mountains are awesomely removed and victory is known of Peace.
Most adamantly, I appreciate your gracious muse. Thank you BonnieQ.
Love, *hugs*, and abundance of fruitfulness, cheers.
