Whispered Prayers for God's Ear: A Collection of Poems

By Kristine Stanton

Prayer is an integral part of our lives. It is communing with the Lord-sharing our deepest thoughts or emotions as we reach out to Him in faith, hope, and trust. They are expressions of the heart that display joy, praise, thankfulness, sorrow, or pain, just to name a few. The Lord knows the obstacles we face on our journeys-He knows our battles

Who is God?

Who is God? Do you know, have you heard? God is the Creator of all things. He made the heavens and took a shapeless, empty form called Earth, filled it with light, water, dry land, and creatures of many kinds. In His image He created man and saw that this was good.
