SPIRITUAL POETRY
Through the years, we have discovered that one
of the most powerful sources of motivation in
our lives has been inspirational or spiritual
poetry.
Rather than give you a long drawn out explanation
or persuasive argument regarding the uplifting
value of spiritual poetry, we will simply leave
you with a few simple lines by one of our
favorite Canadian authors, Anna Johnson Flint.
"He giveth more grace when the burden grows greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase;
To added afflictions, He addeth His mercy,
To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace."
"When we have exhausted our store of endurance;
When our strength has failed e'er the day is half done;
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,
Our Father's full giving is only begun."
"His love has no limit; His grace has no measure;
His power, no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus,
He giveth and giveth, and giveth again."
