I love how you wrote encouraging word from the Scripture in rhyming poetry. More than that, I love how you personalized them. This is a "blessing" poem. Hugs! Verna

Although I do not believe that you can or should legislate the morality of choice of life or abortion. I am solidly pro life for life. Jesus Christ is the only human whose life course was predetermined. Everyone else has the right to choose. We the ones who are already here do not have the right to take that away from those as yet unborn. Can you even imagine what would have happened to us if Mary, an unmarried teen aged virgin had been forced to abort Jesus?

    You missed my point unfortunately. God created us with free will, otherwise he would not have allowed Adam and Eve to sin. I am in favor of people being able to freely choose to sin against God because their punishment is the result of their poor choice. The only worship that God treasures is worship given without force. If he has to force you to worship him, your worship is of no value. Would you have loved your husband and children if you were being forced to love them? Of course not, Your love for them is precious because you freely chose to love them. The same is true with our creator. We believe the same, even if the difference is the translation of a few terms in the Bible. God accepts our love and devotion only if we freely choose to render it. I could preach this sermon, but I do not feel it is needed as we are not in disagreement.

    You can relax. What you did was to give me an opportunity to express my beliefs and give a witness to the truth about or God and Father.
reply by nomi338 on 10-Dec-2024
    No, no. Please understand. I am merely expressing what I believe. There is no argument or disagreement here.

    And like you said, we are on the same page. You have listened to everyone else for how long now and I am thankful you told me about your beliefs. I am glad we are ok too.

    The greatest thing about truly believing, you want everyone to believe as you do, but you are wise enough to know and accept that you cannot force anyone to believe if they choose not to.

Interesting approach on this. I love the idea and your thoughts on how you interpret the scriptures. Never would have thought about doing this myself. That's the beauty of sharing, for all else to see what motives us, to finding are own spiritual growth to recognize all that are lord as to offer.
May we all find the peace and serenity to say what our lord shows us today. Have a blessed evening. Shadrach

This is a lovely idea to write a stanza of poetry to explain each Bible verse. You have distilled the meaning of each verse so that it is easy for everyone to understand. Great poetry.

This is a beautifully presented post, Debi, which genuinely has a soothing and uplifting effect, particularly at this time of year when the stress and expectation of this forthcoming event can sometimes outweigh its meaning and significance. I love the originality and personal perspective invested into this skilfully composed verse, inspired from the Bible. Thank you, Debi for sharing your kindness. Love Debbie xx
