Tom Zart Poems

No rope or cable can hold so tight
What love can do with twine.
No kiss can taste so bittersweet
As the one which captures our mind.
...

RELATIONSHIPS

Relationships are the greatest predictors of happiness
Healthy ones tend to support our joy and appreciation.
...

AMERICAN SOLDIER
It's not a priest that gives us our freedom of religion
And it's not a reporter that gives us our freedom of voice.
It's not any judge, lawyer, politician, or teacher
...

God's grace not only forgives our ignorance and sin
But it redeems us through the power of the cross.
It enables, strengthens and encourages us
To behave according to His will regardless of loss.
...

At times people seem consumed by guilt
Long after it should have been resolved.
Some rightly suffer their shameful feelings
Because they refuse to give up evil deeds involved.
...

I'm a poet for the Lord
Who created all I love.
A blind man riding a fast horse
Fulfilled by my Father above.
...

ESTHER'S LOVE

Esther of God's Bible became a king's queen
Risking all for the sake of love.
...

COFFEE

Around 1615 coffee came to Western Europe
Raising a huge controversy and warning cry.
...

How would you describe our need for God
Is He foremost in our thoughts and transactions?
He accomplishes His work by our seeking His grace
As we share His blessings by love commitment and actions.
...

The presence of God is not a mystery
When we surrender our soul to His will.
He sees us as His children of faith
And is willing to forgive and fulfill.
