Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Prayer: 4 of 218

A silent prayer to the Lord, Is all I have to show, My devotion, my desire, And to let him know. I clasp my hands and bow my head, My words send forth my sins and dread. He watches and listens to my confessions, Which he considers just my lessons. He knows me like the back of his hand, All my life is his perfect plan. I know...
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Getting my driver's license: 1 of 4

"Mom, when do I get to take driver's training class like Thomas?" It was a hot summer day. My mom was driving my brother to his driver's training class which was an hour's drive away.

Usually, the full responsibility of waging the war against the time-devouring, and seemingly pointless task of housecleaning gets awarded to the already, busy mom.

Religion & Spirituality > Religion & Spirituality (Other) God allows suffering: 3 of 10

Why do good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people? Why are some babies born to live a day and others are born to live to 100?

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Christian: 170 of 276

God, who can invent? Look into the space, It's endless, dry, and harsh, The non-existent place. But look, over there, at God's relent, Amid the abyss is a creation, You can't dismiss.

Water so pure, Water so sweet, Shining, running, Clear and deep. Water of life, Given to me. Dipped in his blood, He has set me free. Under the flood, That purifies, With life everlasting, I arise.
Health & Fitness > Disease (Other) Causes and cures of eczema: 12 of 15

It started two months after I had been a bath aide at the nursing home. The skin in between my fingers became red, dry, and itchy. It eventually spread all over my hands.

Creative Writing > Memoirs Testimonies: Can a horse and a girl be kindred spirits?: 21 of 21

He was not the horse, I had always dreamed of. That big, dapple-gray, with flowing mane and tail. The horse who would perfectly, carry me over every fence to victory in the Olympics.
