{ALL} Friends of Mine.
by Grace {illustrated}
Five Minute Friday, Friend!
{Let the joy begin}
Love for you to play along —
go to: http://lisajobaker.com
where ALL belong
!
***
You. You. Yes, you, too —
are a friend of mine.
Although I have not met you
I know you are divine.
*
When I think of you — I see God’s full intent.
You are completely loved. In His image as is meant.
*
I see your fullness. I see His glory.
I see the wondrous story
&
I choose to see it despite the matter —
I choose to see it despite the “worlds” chatter
for
each
&
every
one
of
us
is
made out of THE same stuff.
*
Think of what this world would be
if we loved one another as true friends indeed.
Instead of displaying judgement & blame
we truly saw God’s image we would be ashamed
of the manner we view our neighbor —
Was there a hint of this in Christ’s nature?
Think, dear friend, of how you choose to love.
It’s not a choice —
It’s His Holy Presence we are speaking of.
It’s found in You. You & especially YOU dear one!!!
You are God in expression.
So worth my love.
wow. wow. wow.
I can’t tell you how thankful I am that the Lord made me post exactly when I did, so that I could be put next to you and visit this site today.
I didn’t realize how much I love and appreciate poetry until sometime in the last year. Your words, today – TODAY – touched this healing heart in a way I can’t describe. Thank you, for taking the time to put them “to paper” and send them out for us all. I WILL BE BACK!
Much love and appreciation!

You are so welcome, Jessica. I love that there are no coincidences in God and that He has blessed us both by being neighbors! Will be paying you a visit now!
Your beautiful words touch me deeply, be blessed.
Blessed indeed, Denise; by you!
Hi Paula! Love this. I haven’t been able to write my poetry the past few weeks..as these words choices lately have had me going in different directions. Will be back to the poetry style next week , and in the mean time I enjoyed yours. It is so true about not judging and if we are to have a Christ like character, we should be outpouring vessels of love no matter what. That is what you are. Blessings to you this week and always.
IMAGINE what this world would be, Rebekah, if everyone would let their love flow!!! I AM imagining.
Also imagining what’s in store for me as I come to pay you a visit. Here’s to another glorious week in God!
It would be an AMAZING place to be :). Maybe we just get glimpses of it here, until we are with the Supreme author of Love , where ALL is love at ALL times.
Beautiful, simple beauty. Thank you for this blessing, this prayer. And your art, as always, is so tender.
You are welcome, Ashley! Thank you for returning the blessings to me!
