Reflections of Peace by Michael Lint

It’s Friday and you know what that means…Inspiration in the form of poetry as I link up with my writing Friends at Lisa Jo Baker’s Five Minute Friday.  Today’s word was STORY.  The word story is not actually in my poem today, but it was inspired by the traditional hymnal “I Love to Tell the Story”.  It is a poem (and story) that I wrote about the greatest Love that ever was.  A Love so great that it transcends time.  A Love that is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.  He came for us.  Plain and Simple.  Here is the poem:     He Came For Us (The Greatest Love of All Time): A Love so great no boundaries knew, Which lived to die though faultless be. He came for … Continue Reading →
