Thank you so much, Raul, for your wonderful six-star review and your meaningful comments. Jesus Christ is the best role model we could ever find; the Bible calls him (among many other amazing descriptions) "the author and finisher of our faith." He can both forgive sins and transform hearts -- and so much more. He is "the Word made flesh," one with the Father. You are the third person who mentioned the word "hope," and I am so blessed that it shone through, even though I never said it! He indeed brings hope to our lives. May God bless you abundantly, my friend. - Mary Kay

I love this poem! As a fellow Christian, I understand the importance to have faith in God. Doubts and fear is what kept us away from Jesus. He sacrificed himself for us sinners! Overall great poem and rhyme!

Thank you so much, Zhen Xuan Liu, for your beautiful, faith-filled review, the five stars and your very encouraging comments! I appreciate the reference to John chapter 11, the amazing resurrection of Lazarus; "He who believes in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. And he who lives and believes in me shall never die." Jesus IS the resurrection and the life! Praise be to the Lord Jesus!
God bless you, my brother.

This is a beautiful poem about our Lord God and Savior who went to his death tortured and ridiculed all to cleanse us of our sins so that we may one day dwell in the house of the Lord in Heaven. And all God's people said Amen!

Dear Amahra,
Thank you for this beautiful review, the five stars and your lovely comments. Yes, we all desire to see Him, with all our hearts! It is good to keep our eyes on the prize, when we're slogging through the muddy waters of this earthly dimension. After all, He left the glories of Heaven, to come here and be with us.
God bless you, my sister and friend. Love, Mary Kay xoxo

Thank you, Linda, for this truly lovely review, so personal and meaningful! Thank you for the five stars, and all you have shared. Yes, He loves us both, and He has forgiven us all things, we are sisters in Him, and it was for freedom, that He set us free.

Thank you so much, Sal, my dear friend -- if you were called away, I didn't have that impression, at all. You gave me a lovely review. I did receive more than I expected, so it's taking me a while to answer them. I'm blessed! God bless you, my sweet friend.
Love always, Mary Kay xoxo
