Poetry for the Love of God

About the Book

… On the shore of nowhere, I’m comforted by thy breeze. On the pier of nowhere, There, I bow on my knees. Riding the waves of nowhere My troubles begin to cease. In the storm of nowhere, There, my soul is befriended by peace … In a collection of inspirational poems, B. J. Norwood invites Christians of all ages and walks of life to enhance or forge a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. With the intent of comforting and encouraging others, Norwood shares poetry that can be used in sermons, bible studies, and other settings to invoke conversation or encourage service to God. Throughout the compilation, Norwood offers a glimpse into the workings of the Holy Ghost while reflecting on the importance of prayer, the comfort that can be found by turning to God when evil penetrates our souls, the pleasure that comes with one of God’s greatest gifts, the power of God to renew our souls and take away our sorrows, and the faith that comes with knowing that God is always there. Poetry for the Love of God shares a volume of straightforward inspirational poems that leads Christians on a lyrical walk through their faith and relationship with Jesus Christ.
