Yep! Another poem!! =) Even though this one is not original with me, it is totally the prayer of my heart!! It's so amazing. . .
Lord Jesus, make thyself to me
A living, bright reality.
More present to faith's vision keen,
Than e'en the sweetest earthly tie.
Nearer and nearer still to me,
Thou, living, loving Savior, be. . .
Brighter the vision of thy face,
More glorious still thy words of grace.
Till life shall be transformed to love;
A heaven below; a heaven above.
Isn't it beautiful? =)
As different people, living in different cultures and lands we will have different interests, and talents. No one is useless. No one can tell you that you are. God gave each of you something special- don't waste it. Give it back to Him- use it for His glory.

Another Poem. . . =)
Ok, so I hope ya'll don't get tired of poems, especially if they're not even original with me. But when I don't have time to write my own thoughts, it's convenient to post things that I already have on hand and want to share. =) This one is a poem my cousin wrote about me a few years back. . . I love it! And I'm pretty sure you guys will get a kick out of it too. =)

You are the type to get things done
What others never have time for--
To just go out and git er done,
Unless it's yur hated chore.
You are the girl who puts up your hair--
Actually gets dirty,
Gets a little angry, kicks over a chair,
And then turns around and smiles.
You wear any jacket to keep out the cold--
Not for popularity or style.
And yet you are very bold
To go against what others feel is style.
You might stub your toe
And then get quite mad.
Or, you'll break your mom's dish
And get quite sad.
You like scaring people out of their wits
When you stay under water
For several minutes,
And then laugh.
You think it is dumb
When little brother gets to drive,
When you know you are better,
Or have been longer alive.
You hate when others mock
What you're good at.
But then you go and do it yourself--
Well, that's that!
You like to play the piano,
But are too shy to play for a crowd.
Then you remember,
You're not very loud.
You know you wash too many dishes.
You know you milk the cow the most.
But yet you are the one who does it--
To argue is a battle lost.
You like to smile
A queer little smile,
But it can shine more than a mile,
If you smile and smile and smile.
You are who you are,
You can't really be changed.
So be a shining star--
God has you arranged.

A poem I wrote several years ago. . . =) Like '08 or '09ish. . .
Wonder
I can’t quite wrap my mind around
The story of creation .
And I can’t comprehend in full
Your wonderful salvation!
Too great for me to understand;
I read your wondrous story.
Jesus; you are my awesome God!
Died? For me to be set free?
I look at you with endless awe.
My thoughts are admiration.
Oh how can I express my thanks
For your most true creation?
I will live for your glory Lord;
And tell my friends and brothers:
Repent and serve the one true God,
Whose name’s above all others!
Oh, your love is too amazing.
Your love is so eternal.
I could try my utmost- best-
I can’t describe supernal!!!
