Help Me Be Stronger Than Death

 

Oh heavenly spirit

From the holy land

I implore you

Please let your tongue of fire

Burn my soul

To the blessed ground

So it may rise from the ashes

Like the phoenix

Stronger than death

But weak enough

To be saved.

Humility and faith...
A balancing act if ever there was one.
You capture common battles very well I feel Dale. Most readers could post this in their diaries I think...
A very fine prayer.

Thank you again, inspired by a great surrrmon.

[Rita L. Sev]

What a beautiful blessing, Dale. Stronger than death - weak enough to be saved - the essence of our humanity...

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Why the you again Rita, I value and respect your opinions.

This must have been written for Pentacost Sunday. I got to it a day late.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Wow marie you are so correct. Thank you.

"'But weak enough
To be saved."
I like the poem. The words above are true. We must bend down to understand the words "Being saved". Thank you for the outstanding poetry.

Thank you kindly sir, it was inspired by yesterday's sermon at church.

[Coyote Poetry]

You are welcome. Always a pleasure to read your work.

Those last few lines vibrated, truth, Dale. Regardless of your faith, I never seen a man or woman die ( and I've seen a few) with arrogance on their face; I'm not exactly sure why that is. But I can guess.

Thank you, for sharing this.

"stronger than death/ but weak enough, to be saved"

to be strong enough to admit that we need another to be happy...oh to be stronger than death.

Outstanding, impressive, all those nice adjectives, mon ami. Too short? Nah.

Leaves me wanting more, too short. Like the ending though.
