God's Flight
On the ground sits a bird
That's too afraid to fly.
Beautiful wings could make it soar,
But the pain of past failure is its lonesome cry.
To have faith is to defy logic. It takes faith to think positively. It takes faith to believe that there is a loving God who cares deeply about our pain. To believe in life, the universe, or yourself after numerous failures is to have courage. Faith is an act of courage. It is choosing to get up in the morning and face our fears and believe that God will help us. Faith is choosing to believe that even though we may have failed one hundred times before that we can succeed the next time.
On the ground sits a bird
That's too afraid to fly.
Beautiful wings could make it soar,
But the pain of past failure is its lonesome cry.
I love this poem. Not only is it beautifully written, but its message is wonderful. I have been going through very hard times and felt so angry and deserted by God. I lost all my faith in...

Until you've walked the road that I've trod,
and pushed your foot in my shoes,
and felt how worn out they are because of the distance I've traveled,
you can never tell me you know how I feel.
This is a very heartfelt poem! In my life's journey. I've experienced a very distressing event. Somehow, I wanted to give up on it. I've asked God for the solution to that problem. I was able...
"Let go," He says. "Let go."
But my heart is stubborn, so I do not let go.
"What if it hurts?" I say.
"I know it will hurt," He says.
To me, this poem seems to be a symbolic one. “I” is ego and “He” is the Almighty. He advises again and again to let ego go. But “I” doesn't want to move further even to the extent of 1mm....

Just between you and me, Lord, I'd like to say
It's not always easy to follow Your way.
I understand what you mean by the Golden Rule--
To create a good life, there is no better tool.
Such an inspirational write...If everyone on earth followed the Light, we'd then set all the wrongs to right. Imagine if every heart was filled with love and peace. What a wonderful place the...
Sometimes I feel lost in a maze of emotions,
where every direction feels like a dead-end street.
I feel so alone in my search for an answer
that I start to blame God for not meeting my needs.
This poem is the same as my feelings. Almost every day I ask myself why I must face all these trials. I have been tired of life, but I realize God has a plan for me and for everybody. I have...
There's a girl crying alone in her room,
Wishing she could disappear from this cursed earth.
Dragging a razor blade across her scarred wrist,
She fails to see how much she is worth.
I am a 11-year-old girl on my grandma's computer. I was touched by this poem because it is at my school we have a few of problems that my principal refuses to solve such as teasing, bullying,...

Across from the mountains,
A little house sits in the trees.
I'm lost in tranquility
As my soul tries to breathe.
I too was a messed up kid and left with a lot of bad memories, I am going through another dark patch in my life but this poem has reminded me that I will rise again and soar and in doing so...
How I wish to trust
In life, no questions asked,
Hanging on God's words,
Confident and relaxed,
If we all followed the beautiful simple sentiment of the poem we wouldn't have half the troubles we have.
Rest, my soul, in God's love
as you live every day.
Relax in His faithfulness
as you go along your way.
Beautiful. If we would only do this, problems solved. Reading this will set one at peace.
I wonder,
Is there anything out there?
Something we don't know?
Our earth is just a grain of dust
Let me tell you, there is a God above. He did not abandon man. On the contrary, He so loved man that He came and died for us to save us. Your human life is not in vain but for a purpose. Gen...
