I Am Who I Am
Re'Shantia from California

When I look in the mirror
Do I know who I see?
Yes, I see a child of the King

Some may call me not so pretty and others may look at me with pity

But although I'm different and not the same as you
I was created by the same man who created you

I was made in His image and made in His likeness
So why do you judge me the way you do

I know who I am beautiful, strong, and courageous at heart
So, Look at me, Look at I'm set apart
Set apart to be something special

I'm a child of a King who died for me
A child of a King who rules everything

And yes I feel really good about myself

Because the one who made me is the very Best.

Re'Shantia,
What a beautiful poem which so artfully expresses such a beautiful truth!
Thank you for sharing it with us,
Linda

I Can See That I Can Love
Jane from California

Love is always patient, love is always kind, love is never envious or arrogant with pride.

I can see that I can love.

I turn up the radio to hear this new song about the deep and tender affection one can have.

I can see that I can love.

I open the dictionary to read love's definition, and it tells me it is everlasting.

I can see that I can love.

Others question how I spend my life, what I value, what I shun.

I can see that I can love.

I may never find the right boy for me, but that does not matter at all.

I can see that I can love.

No matter where life goes, I will always have the one I need.

I can see that I can love.

I've known for a long time that my life already is complete.

I can see that I can love.

Who is this person that I am?

I am the one who walks with God.

And you know what?

I can see that I can love.

Jane,
You are so right! Because we have experienced the love of God, we know how to love.
What great insight,
Linda

I Can Feel You Moving
Shelly from Texas

I can feel You moving...
You're coming like a flood...
I'm surrounded by Your beauty
while I'm covered in Your blood.
When the winds of doubt
creep into my head
You come straight to my resce
and fill me instead
with Your wonderful peace;
so comforting, so sweet!
Pulled in close to Your arms
while I praise you at Your feet!
Oh, Your glorious calm!
So amazingly strong!
You show me as I cry for You
that You've been here all along!
And now up to the top
You're filling me with You.
And I'm shocked by the intensity
of the joy that You renew.
Like a cool wind of relief
in the blister of high noon;
is how it feels to know that You
are on Your way back soon!
I look up in amazement
as I can finally see
Your umbrella of protection
that has always covered me!

Shelly,
I love the flow of this poem! It begins gently, builds in intensity, and then resolves with the truth that God was there all along.
Good work,
Linda

Those sitting around me
Kimberly from the United States

Those sitting around me,
all have a life.
They don't know this,
but i reflect a light.
The most beautiful light,
shining with a rainbow
of love.
Darkness disintergrates,
solitude sinks,
to the deepest of seas.
Instead of tatooing the word,
He tatooed the verb:
love.
A lonely girl,living in obscurity,
in a hole where nobody helped me. Instead, they continued to
push me, down,
down, down.
Walking the plank, into the tornado, a whirlwind, the world.
That girl is gone now.
She is God's.
The peole sitting here,
waiting to arrive, might not know this:
I am....in love with God.

THE SECOND COMING
Sam from Malawi

there lies a time
when i shall come again
and clear the way out
for those that have obeyed
there awaits a day
a moment of either or
between disgrace and eternal rhapsody
the preemptied second coming
of our lord jesus christ
is the waiting memento
and the forth-coming judgement day
lets pray hard
to save ourself a chance

THE COLOUR OF LIFE
Khwereliwa from Malawi

i want to know
what the colour of life is
is it white like snow
or it is pale like yellow

is life sweetly colured like an orange or a water-melon
or it is sourly coloured like a lemon

is life so transparent like the atmosphere
or it is so opaque like blood

life i hope is conditional
i think it is subjective
i ponder it as selective
i percieve it as lovely cruel
and patiently impatient
these are my best clours of life
that is if you are
an unrepentant sinner
or unless otherwise
life is good

Who am I?
Aminta in Ohio

Oh yes, I know who I am, but can you see?
Is it as plain to you as it is to me?
I hope you see, I'm a child of the King!
I want it to be known, so loudly I'll sing,
Of His grace, forgiveness, and mercy on me,
And those binding chains from which He set me free
He loves you lots too! So let His praises ring!
And the thanks for what He's done, to Him bring

Who am I?
Linda Croft

Who am I in a world filled with woe?
What is my purpose? Where will I go?
God is my Master; His love is true;
He will be with me, whate�er I do.

Friends will forsake me when times are tough,
God will be with me; that is enough.
Jesus has died that I might be free
He is my Saviour; He is my Key.

Life�s goals are nought when God is denied;
Only His truth will always abide;
Help me, Oh God, to live just for You
Save me, and help me, and keep me true.

Who am I in a world filled with woe?
What is my purpose? Where will I go?
God is my Master; His love is sure;
Only His truth will ever endure.
