I Simply Cannot Thank You Enough

I thank you..
as I sit here in my car
waiting for the light to turn green
I often wonder just where you are
because you, no one has really seen


I look over my shoulder to the east
the mountains look so divine
I admire the beauty nothing lacking in the least
reminds me that nothing i own is truly mine
I lovingly thank you...

but it's there for me to admire
as I drive my way back home
and feelings to inspire
I spent many hours thinking I was alone
I truely thank you...

every where I turn to stare
I see your creation of perfection and peace
I'm reminded that you are alwayss there
such glory of paradise to release
I admirably thank you...

the hours of devotions are so small in amount
for all you gave and given up for me
the hours should be numerous to count
you gave so that I can live and be free
I want to thank you...

every hour I set aside moments of more than a few
because my praises and questions go on forever
I praise love and give my thanks to you
sometimes I wish the answers were never
I thank you...

when things go wrong
you provide us with a safety net
thru your guidance it helps us become strong
for the life you have set
I praise and thank you...

thank you for family, thank you for friends
thank you for giving up your life for me
thank you for coming into my life beginning to end
thank you for always being there for me

thank you for believing in me when I say
that I love you...
as I asked you into my life to come in..
thank you Jesus for these perfect days
and for forgiving my numerous sins...
I simply cannot thank you enough...

I,Simply, Can Not Reply To You, So My Heart Speaks

Terrie,

Love, seldoms comes to those, who talk, about it. It seldom comes, to those, who, just wish they had it. LOVE comes, when we shed our hearts, expose, or, unclothed our heart to God, and ask, that he send, love to our heart.

Most of us, will not stand nacked, before Love's heart, we cloth ourselves, with defensive words, like, she/it were wrong, I was right. Fine, let's say, you are right.

Yet, there you are, no man/woman, is in your heart, so, protective you have become, no man/woman, can touch your heart.

Perhaps, you are right, never bend, like a tree, in a storm, grow strong, then just roght away, it all in time, ends up in the ground, but, wouldn't you, like to feel love and live forever, and love does not, live in the ground. Love lives in our heart, based on angel's wings, which never touch the ground.

Confusing You...,

Terrie,

My point was, you are among the few, that takes the time, to realize, where Love comes from. Love doesn't belong to anyone, look around, at all the beauty, God, has given us. This you did, in your poem, look around, Love does not come from us, it comes from his sacrifice, he gave up his life, so, we could see, as you say in this poem, remember where, love, truly, comes from.

Probably, confused you again, this poem is so real, your love for God and you present a question, I never thought of, til, I read your poem, Love is a gift from God, not a gift, we creat for ourselves. You touched my heart, you took the time, to look around, and share with us, the beauty of his love.
