Well, since there were only 2 submissions and they are both excellent I don't think it's necessary to choose a winner- you both glorified God through your work and now you have inspired me!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347308525266877427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4974386309930693981.post-82568840436598376822009-08-24T17:10:35.574-07:002009-08-24T17:10:35.574-07:00lol, that IS funny cause I just replied to YOUR em...lol, that IS funny cause I just replied to YOUR email and said that I had commented!!! :P :PQueen Lucy (I'm being lazy :P)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4974386309930693981.post-46019895784210751482009-08-24T15:02:08.571-07:002009-08-24T15:02:08.571-07:00haha, and I replied and said that you obviously ha...haha, and I replied and said that you obviously hadn't been on the blog and seen my poem.

I have never really written poetry, and this isn't really a very good poem, but I had such a wonderful time writting it!<br /><br />Your Face<br /><br />There is a day coming<br /> when I will see Your face, when Your goodness will be all around me<br /> I know that place.<br />Oh, to be able to gaze apon the beauty of The LORD<br /> To dwell with you<br />Oh, to be able to see your face<br /> I know that place.<br /><br /> There, Your voice from the throne shouts:<br /> "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them."<br />There is a better day coming, I have no doubt.<br /><br /> I know that place, it is the place where,<br />from God's face I will not hide<br /> but, where I may seek the Lord, and with Him abide.<br /><br />Here on Earth, no one may see Your face and live,<br /><br />But,<br /><br />In that place,<br /><br />I will see Your face!<br /><br />In our family Bible study we just read about Moses and how the Lord passed in front of him, but how God covered him with His hand because he could not see the face of the Lord and live. Well I got to thinking, in heaven we will be able to see the Lord's face and still live! So because of that thought, I wrote the poem about how I will see the Lord's face in heaven. The part in quotes is from Revelation 21:3, and I used Exodus 33:12-23 and Psalm 27:4-9.Lexi Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06489845106247190058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4974386309930693981.post-61082218164759621322009-08-19T09:12:55.523-07:002009-08-19T09:12:55.523-07:00I am not a poetry writer...
