My Sunday Offering



Wall Mural at Shrine of Our Lady of the Mountain, Anjara, Ajlun, Jordan








His Love
Despite repeated attempts
to annihilate His love,
He still reaches out.

Simple, effective but I think you could use a better word than 'strong'. I would go for something that suggests a prolonged campaign. You might lose your shape but meaning trumps form any day.

What an unusal crucifixion portrayal! Your verse matches it, I think - though I do agree with Jim's comment.

Beautiful spiritual sentiment, Susan. Thank you for your generous and helpful comment on my post yesterday. <3

Jim and Dave, perhaps a word like 'ongoing'?

SUSAN SONNEN said...

Cynthia, thank you. :)

Good one, my friend. Yes He still reaches out. He is so merciful.

SUSAN SONNEN said...

He never gives up.
