INTERVIEW:
Discussion on second half of interview:
Two poems inspired by Gwen’s drawings. Both are from Living In God’s Rhyme.
THE REFLECTION (pg. 197)
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
and beauty is what is beholden.
God saw the beauty of Mary,
a beauty of motherhood for his Son,
And he saw the beauty of his Son,
in the sacrifice for those he loved.
That beauty God shares with the girl
as she walks through this world.
As she gazes at the reflection
she sees the love God has for her.
It is this love that she sees taking her hands
and guiding her through her life.
It is a love of trust,
something she must
receive and give
in the life she lives.
What reflection do you see
when looking in the mirror?
A SOLDIER FOR THE LORD (pg. 191)
There is more than the battle to be won
There is more that we are here for.
If we are to follow God’s Son
We do not fight as if it’s a war.
No, our mission is to share his love.
If we love God, we are commanded to love others.
Maybe the battle rages within us.
If we are one with Jesus,
The battle has been won.
We are raised with his Son.
If God is in us, his love we must share.
Through our sharing we show we care,
Not just for others, but for the Father
Who loves us in spite of ourselves.
We must show the love in our heart,
Love that is for all to see.
As the sun rises our days start.
Is love what our day will be?
Love will overcome hate.
If we do not show His love,
What will be the fate
Of those we overlook?
A soldier, marching forward,
Sharing God’s loving word,
Showing his saving grace
To a stranger’s face.
If we are to stand,
We must follow his command.
1 John 1:1 – 5:21
Closing Prayer
If you give
Him the times
As you live
His word rhymes
And don’t forget, “We are the Kings kids and you will never get rid of us for we are His with Jesus.”
