Carried on Breath

 

He looks beyond my rough exterior to see the gem

God lives in me and I in Him

He is ever present by my side

Christ goes before me to be my guide

He is beneath me; I walk on solid ground

Jesus' name carried on breath - a heavenly sound

As I lift my eyes to the sky, He is there

To doubt my Lord, I do not dare

Psalm 143:10

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

About the Poet
I grew up in rural North Carolina, married for 38 years to my best friend and soulmate, Allen, who retired almost 17 years ago from the Air Force after 24 years of service to our beloved America. We have a daughter, Ashley ( and son-in-law, Kris) and, a son, John, and, our two beautiful grand daughters, Amelia and Haley, and Isaac, our only grandson, all blessings from God. We have four cats; Mr. Peabody, Missy, aka Middle Kitty and Tabby, aka Little Kitty, and Gracie. I've seen a lot of hard times and God has always been here for me to see me through them. I am a vessel God can use to help others in need. If I could be described in one word, it would be that I am an encourager.
