Broken Family “He who brings trouble on his family will inherit only wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise.” NIV Proverbs 11:29 The Family of God has been broken As our Mother now weeps in Father, as One The Holy Word of God is now spoken Through The Words of The Chosen One, The Son. The Spirit of Man is calling through cloth While the Spirit of Woman sows her love But the Prodigal Son still dines with hogs Lusting devouring pure gifts from above. The Spirit of Woman calls Family Come to my bosom, my womb and be safe While the Spirit of Man takes what he can And The Son Shines Love to Light The Way I call you my sister, come walk with me Let us go together, seek our brother As Father is sad at loss we have had Let us dry up the tears of Mother. Let us bring our love in our Brother, Christ And help bring healing to Our Brother, Lost And heal Our Broken family.

Thank you, Cheryl. I write many ways seeking truth. I try not to have a pattern, just go where the spirit leads me. ![]() ((Cheryl)) -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

This is very very nice Newell, I have a problem calling Christ my brother, I know I have read it many times and heard it spoken, but to me He is my Lord. So I must look into my bible and see where that comes from....but I do love this poem. It is beautiful. floria Floria |

Thanks floria for your kind thoughts. When Christ teaches us how to pray, He says, our Father, which art in heaven. In order to be our Father, wouldn't He be our Brother? ((floria)) -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

Floria, I send you Matthew 12:50, NIV: "For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother." ((floria)) -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

Yes thank you very much Newell for pointing that out, I always like to know where I am right and where I am wrong, I have not been on a few days as my mother in law has been ill. I just popped on here, and I am glad I did. I do thank you kindly for pointing out that if we worship our Father in heaven along with Jesus as He worships His father in heaven then surely that makes Him also our brother. sorry it took awhile for me to come back to this. ![]() Floria |

Thank you, floria for your remarks. When we are in God we are all one spirit. Too often we try to think spiritually as separate people, but that's not how the body of Christ, God as Spirit of Love is. Once we are connected we are like little spirit leaves in God's big tree, sharing sunshine and moisture for the good of one body, Fathers, Mothers, Sisters, Brothers, Daughters, Sons. Yes and Husbands, Wives and Friends, too. Because when we are in God all Love is the same rich connecting love. So, as Christ is my Brother, and Christ is your Brother, guess you and I are sister and brother. Is that okay with you? ![]() ((floria)) -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |
