Hello, JLR,


.....Vessel Of Your Prayer ....is a good acrostic poem for the challenge. It sounds like you are a devoted Christian. Good job.

JLR: beautiful poem honoring Jesus as we are the vessels
of prayer. I like the realizing the call. Great witness to the
world. I think this is time to be in prayers when we have
viruses floating around the world especially China. May
God protect and heal us. flylikeaneagle

    flylikeaneagle, never could prayer be more intrinsically relevant for all of mankind. We do need God's Grace even more during this outbreak. I am humbled by your generous six-stars!

Hi Jim. Ending lines,"Right with the I AM" shows excellent choice of words for your theme. That line supports the rest of your poem. You've set up the acrostic form nicely, too. Marilyn

I love your opening lines:
V isions of Christ's hands
E ager to support
S inners on their knees.
It created a beautiful vision for me, the reader and the sinner. Very good, as always.

Excellent acrostic poem and a Spirit's Vessel. Quite an interesting form and you have done well with occasional rhyming and most importantly writing a cohesive piece of poetry.

Great job with your contribution to the Potlatch Club, J.

An enjoyable read this fine Saturday afternoon.

I had not heard of this poem form before, but I enjoyed your composition.

E very time, each day
R ight with the "I AM.
These last lines truly sum up a great walk with Christ.

Well done.

There is something about that picture that I find disturbing, I have seen it before and I find it kind of frightening. Your words are faithful and this is an unusual acrostic as the lines are usually longer, but I still enjoyed your poem, love Dolly x

Oh yes indeed, I wrote a poem recently of Jesus not coming to change the world, but I realised this job was committed to us, we are rulers, but in God, and to rule via the power of prayer, as Jesus said, all power has been given Him, and He gives that to us. Well done Jim, an excellent acrostic, and wonderfully worded to impart this marvellous message, well done, blessings, Roy

Hello JLR
your poem about the Spirit Vessel
Is really good of how you capped the first letter of your poem
And what I noticed is a spiritual with a message to tell us readers that a prayer a day is good for our soul. And I agree.

Thanks for introducing us to this type of acrostic poem. I see your notes say that the last word must be six letters. So your word is PRAYER. Very nice - to be a vessel of prayer to the Lord!
