Poem: His Voice I Hear

His Voice I Hear

By: Joi Maree Flowers

In those lonely hours of despair
When my soul is burning
And my mind is filled with chaos
And my heart is unsettled

I seek solace through prayer

And in silence I await to hear

His voice

That will speak to me
Before the clock strikes 12

And I will listen
And I will be comforted

Poem: Accordingly

Accordingly

By: Joi Maree Flowers

Understanding that things happen for their specific purpose
And reason
At their assigned time
In their appointed hour

Accordingly
 
Whether agreed
Whether accepted
Or none of the above
 
Those things that occur
Not by man's controlling hand
 
But by one
Powerful
And Almighty
 
God
 
Who before time
Made those plans
 
That were written in
The book of Destiny
 
So for ourselves
 
We could
 
Remove self
Banish plans
And
Practice patience
And
Embrace faith
 
As our way
Was never
Meant to be

But His
Was

Is
And will always be
 
Accordingly
 
Therefore we must surrender
 
We

It has come

And is ours
The best of love
