THE GOAL IS BEFORE ME!

THE GOAL OF THE HIGH CALLING IN CHRIST IS BEFORE - THE PRIZE IS WITHIN MY REACH - IT IS NOT AN EASY TASK - I HAVE TO PICK UP MY CROSS AND FOLLOW HIM - FOR THE GOAL IS BEFORE ME - THE SURE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE IS BEFORE ME - ALONG THE WAY - HE STOPS AND REFRESHES ME - SO THAT I CAN MOVE FORWARD AND FINISH THE RACE - IN THIS TIME - IN THIS SPACE - THE GOAL IS BEFORE ME - THE VISION IS BEFORE ME - I CAN SEE CLEARLY - AN EXPECTANCY IN MY SOUL COMES ALIVE - FOR HE IS NEAR - AND THE DREAM THAT IS INSIDE WAS PLACED THERE BY HIM - IT SHALL COME TO PASS - FOR I KNOW THAT

THE GOAL, THE FINISH LINE IS BEFORE ME!

THE GOAL IS BEFORE ME - IT IS FOR AN APPOINTED TIME - PERSEVERANCE AND PATIENCE IS THE KEY - STAYING IN UNWAVERING FAITH - PRESSING TOWARD THE MARK - AS I KEEP MY EYES ON THE PEARL OF GREAT PRICE, JESUS - IT WILL BE WORTH IT ALL - THE GOAL IS BEFORE ME - IT LOOMS LARGE IN MY MIND - IN MY HEART IT IS ESTABLISHED - FOR JESUS IS LORD - WHAT A WONDERFUL LORD HE IS - HE PICKS ME UP WHEN I AM DOWN - TURNING MY FROWN INTO A SMILE - FOR THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH - AS I WALK THE PATH BEFORE ME - ANSWERING THE MASTER’S CALL

THE GOAL IS BEFORE ME!

About the Poet
I was born in Lexington County, SC. I lived in Jacksonville, Florida for many years.I recently moved back home to my home town, Columbia, SC. I have one daughter, Kimberly. I now have two brothers. One went to be with the Lord in January, 2010. My Mom went to be with the Lord, Memorial Day May 28, 2012. Among the things I am grateful for and remembering about her is my salvation. She was a strong passionate woman of God all of her life and a beautiful loving Mother. I was saved and baptized in the ocean in Rota, Spain. What an experience that was! Holy Spirit chased me and drew me to Himself, while I was alone in another country. I surrendered to the Lord, and His peace flooded my soul. It was so beautiful. I am so happy he saved me and redeemed me. I am so happy to share these poems from His heart and mine. Poetry is a release and has inspired and encouraged me and many who have read my poetry. I was blessed to write for a number of years on Crossway Publications and had over 300 poems that I wrote on the site. God has increased my gift with more beautiful poetry. In 2005 my poetic writings seemed to catch the fire of God and have a deeper meaning. I thank God for this chance to share my poetry with all. God Bless...
