Poetry
The artist is nothing without the Gift,
no portrait would ever be so grand.
The colors would lay in mere streaks,
without the touch of the Master's hand.
The musician is nothing without the Gift,
no melody would ever be made.
The notes would lay alone on the sheet,
without the Creator's help and aid.
The poet is nothing without the Gift,
no poem would ever come alive.
The rhyme would have no reason,
without the Word it cannot survive.
The singer is nothing without the Gift,
no song would be written to sing.
The words would catch in the throat,
without love echoing the the King.
The architect is nothing without the Gift,
no bridge could ever cross or span.
The rivers and lakes would not run free,
without finding salvation in His plan.
There is no talent without the Gift,
no one would be able to compete.
Our lives would be but a failure,
Ah, but the Gift makes us complete.

Absolute truth written here. I dearly love this, Debby. Write on!
Deborah, What a beautiful poem. Over and over again, I try to say to people about God's wonders, "It's a gift!" God has gift after gift for us. We don't bring it on. He freely gives to us. It's not our works that count. It's his gift, his grace, his favor. He loves us beyond anything we can imagine. It's a gift!
Yes God gives us gifts and it's great when we can use them to glorify Him. Enjoyed your thoughts.
