Helpful Words Collecting these poems has been quite a trip. If I think of it much my mind still does flip. I even have poems that pass through my brain. My mind is uncertain so to share, I refrain. It’s not that they’re bad, they all are quite true. I think some are for me while some are for you. Sometimes it does seem that many do think. From speaking their thoughts, they never should shrink. If they have a thought show up in their head. Of course they will speak it, it has to be said. We live in a time when we think it’s our right. To say what we want no matter who is in sight. It seems we’ve forgotten an important fact. To think first of others is how we should act. And part of our action is the way we do speak. So guard your words closely their good you would seek. Truth doesn’t sink in if we have no love. And love that is pure must come from above. So when words do hurt, in whole or in part. Look so much closer, examine the heart. Sometimes words hurt because we must learn. The truth of the words is what we did earn. If love is the motive that drives what we do. The hurt isn’t fatal it’s meant to help you. This I do know because of what I have read. I open the Bible and read what God said. Some of His words cut straight to the heart. But His love does fill me, so healing can start. To be more like Jesus, that is my aim. So I pray that my words would do just the same. © My mind seems to be filled with poems lately and some specifically that remind me of Gods love and care through very difficult circumstances and in the midst of feelings of unjust treatment at various times in my life. While these have brought me great peace and comfort, it seems like I get a very clear Not now when I think about sharing them. As a couple of those were going through my head this morning, reminding me of Gods goodness, He put this poem in my mind to share with you. I pray that it is a help and encouragement to you and that it brings glory to God. In prayer, Tom
