Oh God, in your benevolent presence I find, A tranquil haven for my troubled mind. Even when I stray far from your view, I feel a divine magnetism pulling me to you. At times I feel how thankless I am And wonder if not my piety, a mere sham? My heart rises up to heaven Whenever I am in severe pain But sadly, I forget you, As soon as I am through. Sooner when I overcome my strife, You bless me with a fresh lease of life You send down beams of light, Into my dark and dreary night. You glue up the shards, When I am broken and at odds. You lovingly pat me on my head And take away my dread. You put a smile on my face, Even on losing my race. Each time when I cry, My tears you gently dry. When I fall down under the weight, You come to me and gently lift When I drift without direction, You show me the way with affection. Your light never fails to guide. With you, how safe I feel inside. You supply me with all I need. You are my life’s greatest comfort, indeed. Give me grace ever to stay within your magnetic field To seek your whim and to temptations, never yield

This poem is such an inspiration for each of us. God is always there when i need Him, for I don't ever verbally ask him, I think, if only YOU think I deserve your help God. i never expect anything because I feel i am good follower God will help, No,that is somehow arrogant. I am his humble servant, and praise him when he does help me. God is a loving, forgiving merciful God. I respect your faith my friend, and absolutely love and relate to your wonderful poem. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

A superb spiritual poem which I love very much. A symphony of praise to Our Lord. Alas I should write soon a poem on Our God. Marvellous.

Your poem beautifully captures the intimate relationship between the speaker and their faith. The imagery of finding a tranquil haven in the benevolent presence of God resonates deeply, conveying a sense of solace and peace amid life's trials and tribulations. The poet's candid reflection on moments of forgetfulness and doubt serves to highlight the ongoing struggle to maintain faith and gratitude in the face of adversity.

"You glue up the shards, When I am broken and at odds." -- "When I drift without direction, You show me the way with affection." -- "You supply me with all I need." God and you are a majority. As you say...all we need to master earth life, is a relationship with God.

This is so beautiful and soulfully divine dear sweet valsa. Theres a hint of sincerity in your poem, how faithfully you seek for the almightys light and guidance when darkness consumes you, youv written that so very well here dear valsa. Your poem flows so effortlessly and in a delicate yet powerful manner that highlights the inner light within you. I especially love the lines “ You put a smile on my face, Even on losing my race. Each time when I cry, My tears you gently dry.” those rhymes and thoughts expressed really made me feel so much and made my heart softer. I love love this! How youv described the divine magnetism! A fave it is for me
