Tether my soul, tie peace to my frame,
Make love my goal, steady my aim
That wherever I am, whatever I do,
Your presence in me would point others to You.

Again, so beautiful 🙂
Thank you, Peter! 🙂
I love this–I especially love the idea that my soul is “tethered” to HIM!!
In a world where things are pretty topsy turvy, that’s a true blessing of magnificent proportions….
It is so wonderful to encounter people with that presence.
Some people have an extra ‘something’ to them that draws us to them….
This made me smile on so many levels. First, I have a frosty soccer net in my back yard. A few weeks ago the grandboy and I braved the chilliness and muddy back yard to go and kick around for a half hour. Cocoa soon to follow. “)
Second, I just love this. It reflects the prayer of my heart. I am part of a ministry (similar to Emmaus Walk, called Koinonia) that shares encouraging mail/gifts with the participants. May I include this poem as my gift. I will heartily give you credit. I just was so blessed and want to pass the blessing along.
You have my hearty consent – thrilled to be a part of your ministry team! 😉
as a mom of three teen-age boys and having had various tethered nets in the yard and driveway … yes, it speaks to my heart … and makes me reflect on my goals and desire to be intentional in the season God has put me in … you made me smile! Thank you, dear!
I like your desire to be intentional – it is mine, too! Thanks Heidi!
Wonderful poem and photograph.. 🙂

A nice poem for an image that could have easily taken a different twist.
Thanks Rosy! 🙂
