My poem to God

Taylor

You protect me
I give thanks
You love me
I spread the love
You make me joyful
I make others joyful
You send me messages
I listen to Your angels
You give me peace
I don't interrupt it
You guide me
I follow

I love scuba diving. This is me last February in Kona, Hawaii. I want to tell you about a healing of fear I had by praying with a Bible verse that says, "I am persuaded that, neither... height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Rom. 8:38, 39). I really liked the "height, depth, nor any other creature" part, so I could know that no creature under the water could hurt me while I was diving, and it helped me stay calm. I like being able to rely on my Father-Mother God wherever I am—no matter how deep in the ocean!
