The Poetic Preacher

Amir' Timur"

1 Corinthians 13: 13
Love never fails....And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Oh how many times have I deviated from God's Path for all men,
Whereas I believed that my way of knowing love came only from my emotions.
This method is not love for love is knowing a spiritual attitude,
Knowing how to love, this I could not comprehend.

So through the ill treatments were I seen women neglected,abused and exploited,
My heart pleaded to have a woman, that I could love and embrace!
But what woman would she be, so I chose those that lived an abnornal life.
But yet my heart still grieved for a very long time, never giving up on hope in seeing her face.
This form of love repeated a cycle over and over again!

But through the tough trials and failed relationships, I continued to search for that woman.
That God preaches to men, in more ways than one.
The one that will be filled with faith, hope and love that I could comprehend.
Whereas she would give me more insight of love, that would radiate like the sun.
A lover of my heart that would be my beginning and my end.

Behold my God states "He makes all things new!"
Yeah I preach this today because love came blasting through...
Whereas the voice of doubt has laid hold of my soul much to long.
Therefore today I can write the songs of hope, faith and love...
I say behold to every woman, these songs are Divinely made!
For the greatest gift to all men is learning how to have faith and hope,

In knowing how to love you!
