Renewal

by B-Miles Jackson

Start now, start new, began,
The truth is in the eye of the beholder.
For the fruit of the spirit is self-control,
The winds of change are blowing,
God you became my beginning point.
God clothe my weakness in your power,
Inwardly gazing upon your image
Of love and mercy,
I gain strength.
For the winds of change
Are still blowing in my life.
Start now, start new, began;
Focusing on whatever is true,
Noble, right and pure,
Beyond the power of memory,
Excellent or praise worthiness,
Through grace, think about such things.
Controlled by the Holy Spirit,
The wind is still blowing in my life.

ABOUT THE POET ~
Barbara B-Miles Jackson, born in 1948, grew up in Texas, studied poetry as a student in school. The poetry of other poets inspired me to go forward, changing myself when I could not change my situation. I one child and two grandchildren., Later needing a way of expression and focus, I turned to writing poems. Writing reminds me, we must travel through life situations with as much grace and dignity as possible., I started writing in 1995 for an Open Poetry Contest with National and International Library of Poetry. Most In the US and other in Europe.
