Well preserved
At His right hand
Pleasures eternal
Joy filled earthly life path
Is mine
Cinquain
(Poetry based on verses from Psalm 16)
Preserve me, O God:
for in You do I put my trust.
You will show me the path of life:
in Your presence is fulness of joy;
at Your right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Like a fading leaf
I wonder as I age
And detach from life
On my aged tree
Just what the end will be
I am trusting and
Praying that God’s angels
Catch me when I fall
Asleep on this earth
And like the wind
Gently take me up
To my eternal home
Where I will live on
In the God’s presence
On His Tree of Life
Syllabic Verse
#OctPoWriMo Day 16
Filled with doubt I elect to stand
Holding fast His words in my hand
I trust and overcome fear,
Embrace life, enemies sneer, as they disband
Florette

A promise
Is only as good
As it’s source
Therefore
Place your trust in the Creator
Of the first promise
Shadorma
The Lord has future plans for me that are good.
I trust in Him, for I know He will act.
He has plans that are exact.
He will give me an abundant life.
I do not have to worry,
or be in a hurry.
He will provide for me,
As He provides for the birds of the air.
I can depend on His care.
Therefore, I will delight myself in Him,
and trust in Him, for He does guarantee
the desires of my heart He’ll give to me.
As I trust Him and acknowledge Him,
He will direct my paths and make them straight,
And they’ll lead me right to Heaven’s gate.
My eye, nor ear, nor heart, cannot even imagine
what He has prepared for me,
Here on earth and in the Heavenly.
I have faith that He will reward me as I seek Him,
and love Him with all my heart, mind and soul.
That is my future, that is my goal.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. (Psalm 23:6)

I worried
And wondered although
God said don’t
Syllable Lune
Sound familiar?
God says not to worry yet again I find myself doing so.
God says not to wonder about the future yet I often do that too.
Why do I do that?
He’s shown me time and time again that He’s trustworthy, that He’ll always be there for me, that He loves me and cares for me, and wants to heal me and give me an abundant blessed life, yet when a new problem arises I somehow find myself lapsing back into worry and wonder.
Ah, “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak” said Jesus (Matthew 26:41)
Forgive me God.
I love You and I am so happy that you love me and are patient with me.
…“Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief” Mark 9:24
Trinet Poem
Looking for a place to run and hide.
Health problems falling like Fall leaves
Upon my foundation of faith.
Above me threatening
Fears loom like dark clouds,
And Doubts circle around,
Causing a chill,
Til I hear
My Lord
Speak.
Reverse Etheree
He says in Psalm 32:7 that:
Have you tried the LORD?
Have you experienced Him?
Have you taken time?
Taste and see, the LORD is good.
Have you reached out?
Trust and see, His blessings flow.
He is waiting for you.
Perceive who He really is.
Taste His goodness today.
Choka
Oh, the LORD is good!
Just trust in Him and be blessed!
Taste and you will see!
Senryu
O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. Psalm 34:8
I am at crossroads
Today I have to make a choice
Which road shall I take
One marked Fear or Faith
Mind reels toward Fear
Heart wants to step out on Faith
Truth tells me to trust
And boldly take the step
To walk on Faith’s road today
Choka
