In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

"Today's Petition"

This day's petition I have,
for You my Lord.
Is that I may remain,
in Your full joy.

That my heart,
may praise and thank You.
Delighting myself,
in Your Word, love and truth.

Staying close to You,
my eyes fixated on You.
Lifting You up,
glorifying You my Lord Jesus Christ.

Rejoicing in You,
because You are my Saviour.
Worshipping You,
as my King and Lord.

Just staying close to You,
also worshipping You in my quiet moments.
You deserve all praise,
You deserve all thanks.

Not paying attention,
to the alligators.
Only You matters the most to me,
and I will be staying in You.

You are my joy,
and in You I have peace.
So amen to staying in Your joy,
and amen to staying in Your peace.

By: Crowned Princess.

"We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners! May the LORD fulfill all your petitions". (Psalms 20:5)

All praise to the Great I Am! :clap:

Keep up the good work! :)

Do you write poems also in Norwegian and Dutch?

Thank you. :) I do write sometimes in norwegian and in spanish, but this hasn't been too often. I might take it up more later on, depending on how inspired I feel writing in these languages. I write a lot more poems in english. I haven't written much poems in dutch.

I prefer writing in Nynorsk. Do you know this one? Can you read and understand it as well? ;) :)
Hey, this is really good; I can understand a little; I think Nynorsk has a sense of local roots and a vivid spontaneity and expressively that at times the relative formality of Bokmaal does not have.

Nynorsk is actually considered as a more poetic language. ;) :D Maybe I could share some of my earlier nynorske poems with you?

I am so pleased with all the "Likes" and "Winner" Medallions I got in here, I didn't expect getting a lot of these on this poem. Thanks a lot to you all! I got touched by this!

Stay blessed in Jesus Christ you all! :sparkles:
