~ Being ever honest, and having taken many steps and great care, in the proposition and greater purpose, of my peaceful ambition, and as this is, this Christmas season, my thriving hearts perfect hope, and very treasure for you... ~
~ I know, that the goodness of ones soul, though in times it may run adrift... rests in the measure of real divinity, not alone within the narrow, impermanent wake of it's shortcomings. ( No but rather ), within it's absolute abandonment of this to God, and what it is willing to learn from Him, and moved, to forgive... and so it is that the beauty abounds in it's way of yielding initially. ~
~ For I know, enchanted are the humble, and enlightened are the eyes', of the truly open... ~
~ As their sweet love for their gift of life is deeply rooted, in their honest consideration of this, and their very answer, given to His tender calling, to come know Him, and move with Him in this pure devotion. ~
~ ( As it has been seen by Me as well for you ), and graciously kept, and is now sown and so upheld by Him for you. Through your complete abandon to its' awesome prudence, and while alive, and with your free spirit, moving within the promise of this fond emotion. Taken, upon the journey, your joy forevermore, will be captured through your opened Eyes', and held up for you as you are brought moreover to know Him, and be with Him, and be forever, opened by Him. In the very welcome and wondrous awakening to be found within the pleasure and perfect company. Of His Peace. ~
~ So ever forthright, and certain. Wild eyed, and adamantly screaming and living amid you. Eagerly, He awaits you, here with this hope, humbly standing up for you. For He is the certainty of this promise, ( of brighter days ), crying out naked before you, and arriving now and forever to be, ( the sweet perfection of your joy ). Found amid this season, and within the openness of your heart and poring out and shining brightly before you, and burning within the blazing height of His honest devotion. ~
~ For He is this truth alive inside you, and wailing, and so He is to be seen. For steadily you can hear Him in His honesty, as passionately, and ever earnestly, this hope of His can be found to be running, high amid the wonted howling. Aloof... the simple calling of your dreams, and so it is to be aspired (this His one ambition). This simple dream, that longs for you to come and find Him this day. As He is our Lord God, and tender favor, and ever gracious, Heavenly Maker. Yes our Creator, Lord and Lamb. ~
~ Your open, and tender, and ever willing, blessing of true companionship, and freedom, and the simple offering and very spirit, of a perfect peace, and He is the hope for all the ever willing hearts to befriend, and forever, waiting patiently within you, this vision of Him. It is in Him in whom Your very soul, can so depend . ~

Oh but that all who proclaim to follow the teachings of the master would read this and then look into their hearts to see what they have allowed to happen to their faith. I enjoyed reading this, it shows the promise of what could be accomplished should the true believers usurp the power elite who seized control so very long ago. We called Christmas "Yuletide" many years before the birth of your prophet.
Peace be with you.

Very inspirational and lifting.

Truth and wisdom pour
from your pen as
inspired by God.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for
the light of the Lord that opens the door
Reveling the light of heaven serene
the evidence of things not seen
My God has revealed the evidence
His glorious power with consequence
Healing me and making me clean
the evidence of things not seen
Faith in Christ without reservation
releaved the pain of my aberration
So open His book to see what I mean
the evidence of things not seen
Faith is the substance of things hoped for
the evidence of things not seen

This writing is very peaceful and calming to wandering soul.. it's a graceful lullaby that touches one's heart and takes all the painful worries far away leaving it pumping with joyful smiles... Such simple words yet have depths of deep seas... very well written adn whether we aetheist or religious, spirituality has nothing to do with such true inspiration... thanks for sharing... with such attitude, you are already a winner, but still good luck with in the contest... take care Minoo

A deeply felt song that illuminates and touches. I wonder if you might gain both insight and poetic sense from the nature and spiritual ecstasy that is within the work of Gerard Manley Hopkins?

Very Spiritual
Jesus came to me when I was seven years-old and claimed me. No one every believes this, but He told me of the sorrow I would find as His servant. He leads us in His ways. This is a very fine write that I enjoyed very much. Well-written and a fine message.

I'm not necessarily a religious person, but I think that this could be translated to many faiths and belief in general, despite your own designation. It is the comfort in believing that there is a higher power watching over and empowering that brings out the light in this piece. Sometimes, it has the flow of stream of consciousness.. the piece reads like thoughts, the way it's broken into segments. Thank you for sharing!
