They are born out of a love for God and people I can't generate on my own. Romans 5:5 tells us that the Holy Spirit pours out God's love in our hearts. I encourage you to pray before reading each poem for the Holy Spirit to reveal its significance to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile many of my encounters with teens were as an advisor in relatively calm conditions, there were times these kids needed a more desperate message: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHey there!

However, there were times when desperate words had to be said to encourage kids not to overthink their current life situations, letting them know there was hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, there are personal poems designed to express this pent-up love I have toward my Father, God, hoping to inspire others to pursue this same intimate relationship with the Lover of our soul: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI desire passionately to pursue, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClinging to You, never letting go.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy love for you consumes me, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSending longings into my soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e---\"When I Consider\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy prayer is you will allow this poetry to saturate your heart and soul with love's possibilities!\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 84\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 16, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43800983732310,"sku":"9798885404983","price":32.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/5138\/4918\/files\/L1hRM2ZzaHBJeTFXTmlFMGd2c2ZpQT09.webp?v=1767959493","url":"https:\/\/www.sourceandsage.com\/products\/shine-motivating-poetry-designed-to-instill-salvation-hope-inspiration-nourishment-and-encouragement-paperback","provider":"Source \u0026 Sage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
