It is so true what you speak Blue-Stubby. Many non-Christians watch the actions of others who profess to be followers of the Christian faith. They talk the talk but don't walk the walk. Many are discouraged by what they see. We, the light, are here to encourage. Love your poetry.

I utterly and totally agree, too much talk with not enough walks do turn folk away.
We're told about Jesus, God the heavens and the angles from the minute we learn to listen. It's not often we're shown about any of these.
Just a kind word or a little understanding often opens the doors to the belief in the way things should be.
I love the way that this speaks, the tone the gentle narration.
Just the way this type of prose should be.
Well done.

this is a very thought-provoking poem ... is is a bit like the poem I posted earlier this week ... suggesting actual help instead of an offer of vague hope. Walking takes more strength and stability than talking, and you make a good point here.
I like it ... I liked it before ... I don't know how I selected three stars, I thought I had clicked five. Sorry that happened. I really do like it! You might also like "Words that Will" which also addresses the walk vs. the talk.

Comment from mumsyone
Okay! Much better now! It looks great.
I like your poem, but I am confused by the word 'loud' in the second stanza. Is it supposed to be there?
It isn't always vital
to pull each aside,loud (loud?)
but more so to example
how Christians abide.
Please let me know if you change it, and I will be happy to re-read your poem.

Amen and so true. I'm now reading "A Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren. I haven't even finished it and already I've change for the better for God. Your writing is so real and true. It is not our words or singing in church but it is our walk or our steady work with God. Thank you for posting. Blessings to you.
