Original Poetry Collections

Hey Readers,

What you are about to embark on, is not just another poetry collection, it is my thoughts, my experiences, my inquisitions, my prayers, my psalms, my life depicted in poetic form. It is truly conversations with God; after all King David, the imperfect man after God’s own heart was a poet too.

 

These poems are formatted somewhat like a devotional and journal, but instead of me saying “Dear Diary” and talking to a book that can’t answer back; I’m writing letters to God. You will also find bible verses that relate to the poems, power words (Words that inspire) and lots of extra goodies.

 

So I hope my works won’t be just a fun read but a very interactive complete experience that strengthens your relationship with Christ, as well as strengthen our bond as reader and writer.

 

Dear reader, you just don’t know how much I care about you. Know this, God loves you just as you are and exactly where you are in this life at present, after all, we are all a working progress.

 

Enjoy!
L.J.G.B
