GOD'S INSPIRATIONS

[Gaynell DeLappe]

GOD'S INSPIRATIONS   Inspiration awakens the thought process A mind in thought is influenced by many things It could be by the beauty the eye will process In the nature of God's creation of things   It may be strong feelings tugging at my heart Of memorable moments to capture in writing Bible stories and scripture about life to impart Sermons I hear or songs I've heard, are all inviting   Inspiration comes from books I read My family or trips or about favorite things The Bible inspires my writing of spiritual needs The desire to put in writing thoughts about many things   It may be one single word that inspires me Inviting me to sit at the computer Waiting to see what God desires of me To be typed on the keyboard of my computer     Many people have asked me how I can write so many poems. I give God the credit because I know He inspires me. I do get ideas from all of the above things I mentioned but God is the one who inspires and nudges me to write about them. The first binder of poems I put together was titled "God inspired poems."   Have you thought about where you get your inspiration or what or who inspires you? I told you where I get my inspiration and it's probably the same place as you, even if you may not be inspired to write poems. I'm sure you do get inspired about something.  Guard your heart and thoughts that come to your mind. Ask God to inspire you. You just might find a hidden talent God gave you that you have not discovered. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you all.
