    (Sorry if I missed someone).

     

    So, I went through a difficult time in the last few days, but God used it amazingly to teach me something, and to get rid from a lie I believed in about Him. I’m still struggling implementing the lesson, but at least I know the truth. And God will give me power to eventually overcome this weakness. I wrote this poem today in the morning. I hope it will encourage, help or just make people smile!

    As always, it’s free verse, and the original has rhyme and meter. Grammatical corrections and suggestions, critique, and anything else, are welcome!

    (I’m really serious about grammar – I’d be happy to improve my English).

     

    Your love is not imaginary

     

    Your love is not imaginary

    It is real and valid

    Your help is not theoretical

    It is living and breathing

     

    My God, you are always with me

    You are a shield and a sword for me

    You are my strength and my wisdom

    You give me sleep at night

     

    You, my God, are the comforter

    That gives me rest

    And you give me power

    To fight the devil

     

    You had not forsaken me

    Alone, in the midst of trouble

    Out of pain and storm

    You gave me peace and happiness

     

    What is left for me to fear?

    You will guard me from any evil

    There are no cold and horror – I do not shiver

    You will give me light and warm me

     

    When one day, the end will come

    I can no this for sure:

    I will come to you flying

    And will live with you forever!
