Fed by His Words

Not by bread
fed by his words
offering hope
a way through the troubles
a place beyond this world

His message, his life
giving a different direction
Love, not power
caring, not wealth
the way of the Lord

Fed by His Words
after reading comment on the following poem
-------------------

Racing To The Shore

To be with him,
if only to touch
the edge of his coat
to be healed
Hungry people
racing to the shore
to where he would land
going before him
so they may be healed
so they may be fed
