“I Am Surviving”
I survived from being born murder, before my birth,
And He spares me,
I survived molestation,
And he comfort my spirit
I survived rape,
And he strengthens me.
I survived verbal abuse by mankind,
And he was my voice.
I survived physical pain,
And he healed me from the inside out.
I am surviving despite my learning disability,
And he reminds me, I am in his image.
I am surviving with stress and depression,
And in his arms, I am at peace.
I am surviving this environment,
And he held me near his bosom.
I survived the disadvantages,
And he meant for me to be a TESTIMONY.

Truly Outstanding! This is an excellent example of what Faith-centred poetry is all about
Hi Louis,
And I must say this is first for me to know what Faith-Centered poetry is. I must have more than I believe I have. This just encourages my spirit that much more to post here and on my web site http://www.inthearmsofgod.com
Thank you Feon for your very supportive comments.I’m glad that the term “Faith-Centered” is acceptable
.Faith-centered describes the in-tent as well as the con-tent of what an author is really doing.”devotional”
and “praise” and “spiritual” are traditional and good ways of describing their kind of work too,but Faith-Centered does it better.
I am just so intereted what you are explaining here about my poems. I never really was able to pinpoint my writing like I hope I would able too. And you hit the nail on the head with this Louis. Your first to really narrow it down for me so I can not only grasp it but understand it better. Let me ask should base my web site tags toward the very content you spoken of here. I was just curious on your take of this.
Hi Feon!-To answer your last question first;regarding website tags,whatever you decide,simply from a professional
viewpoint,keeping things as clear and simple as possible is usually the better option.As a writer,you need to build and
develop a reputation and be as consistent as possible in what it is exactly that you are promoting as part of your puiblic profile.
LOUIS
