Grace: And Other Poems
In this collection, Grace, poetry is a bridge between the temporal and the eternal, weaving together themes of faith, longing, and spiritual reflection. Each verse is a step along the way—through grace, through trial, through hope—moving the reader toward deeper understanding of God and a more complete life in Christ. In plain honesty and profound spiritual insight, this book invites you to pause, reflect, and sense the majesty of God's presence at every moment. Perfect for anyone seeking inspiration, encouragement, and a renewed sense of faith.
Biblical Foundation
The message of Grace is firmly rooted in Scripture, reflecting the redemptive love and mercy of God. Each poem affirms the biblical truth that grace is not earned but freely given through Christ. As Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV) declares: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast." This collection shines a light on that divine gift, inviting readers to rest in the assurance of God's unending grace.
Key Biblical Themes
Inspired by the timeless truths of Scripture, Grace explores core biblical themes such as redemption, faith, and God's unwavering love. Through poetic expression, this collection delves into the free gift of salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9), the power found in surrender (2 Corinthians 12:9), and the enduring hope that strengthens us through life's challenges (Isaiah 40:31). Each poem is a reflection on God's presence, encouraging readers to deepen their faith, receive His grace, and find comfort in His eternal promises (Romans 8:38-39).
