Psalm Of Dedication! Poem by Roxanne Dubarry

Dear Father God,
we are your poets from every tribe,
tongue, and nation!
Inspirational Christian poetry
is among our avocations!

We indeed do have real stories
to tell to the nations.
Many of us have been criticized
by our fellow poets, simply
because we desire to testify about you!

If our critics took the time to read
between the lines, they would
discover hope for today,
and for tomorrow.

They would discover solace
amidst their pain and
their sorrow. They
would know you are
a friend which
sticks closer than
a brother or a sister!

Considering suicide? I
used to be preoccupied
with it! It only served
to make me emotionally
damaged! Satan called
me a coward!

Satan seeks to kill, steal,
and destroy. And contrary
to what our contemporary's may
think! Satan hates humanity!

God really does love both
me and you! It is the truth,
the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth!

God reveals different aspects
of himself to his poets.
He knows us, and calls
us by name!

We are surrounded
by a great cloud
of heavenly witnesses!
Including the angelic hosts,
as well as heavenly saints.
They have preceded us!

They have fought the good fight,
and run the good race!
Someday we shall see all of
them face to face!

Because they have dedicated
their lives to our LORD and
savior Jesus Christ!
He has given them his
free gift of everlasting
life!

It is our blessed hope,
and aspirations, this
simple Psalm of Dedication:
will be our gift throughout
all of the nations!
