Hold on to your treasured spirit
A precious gem many cannot see
Cling to the pearl of great worth
For your treasure is your faith in me
Simply believe in my many promises
Just accept my words as they are read
And my spirit will open up your mind
To help you understand all I have said
Embrace the commandments I left you
From your heart never let them stray
And you will find each day in your life
They will bring abundant peace your way
Just hold onto what is really valuable
What many want but cannot receive
Embrace my divine unblemished love
As the purest treasure there will ever be

Hi Wendell,
The picture of the beautiful white rose really struck me. It reminded me of my Dad, who loved roses. Red was his favorite color and no surprise, red roses were his favorite.
Thanks, once again, for taking me to a special place with your words. I consider myself so blessed to have met you.

Nancy i am honored that my poems lift your heart and spirit, that is a real blessing to me also…God when he lifts one with a touch, he always lifts another through that same touch…I guess we both feel that and are blessed because of His love. Thanks Nancy, you really made my day with your comments about your dad and my poem. God bless you and have a stellar weekend!

I love flowers and i was smitten in my heart…I hope you like the blend of the two. I love your site also! It really blessed my heart and spirit…thanks for the blessing, only sharing trying to touch many hearts and souls in His name as I can. God bless!

Hi Wendell i like the sentences “just accept my words as they are read and my spirit will open up your mind ” so true and powerful Thanks God bless …Nini
Thank you Nini for the blessings of your words that have placed a lasting smile on my face this morning. God bless and have a beautiful weekend!
Thanks for reminding me of how valuable my own spirit is.
Always Yevette, I am always reminded of a song that always moved me, “Don’t you let nobody turn you around, turn you around, turn you around, don’t you let nobody turn you around, keep on walking, keep on talking, keep on praising God! I think thats the way some of the words go. But it lives in my spirit that way. You are a blessing and He is with you in a great way! God bless and have a wonderful weekend!
The tighter I hold on – the better it feels. And – I have to thank you for reminding me of that.
God Bless…
My dear sister Rosy, I always feel the exact same way, it increases my faith, that He will be with me all the way! I am feeling you…have a beautiful weekend and know you are always a blessing to me and loved greatly by God my sister!
