 The outpouring
cascades
from the overflow of her caring soul
To show the error of transgressions
her ultimate goal
She talks of Jesus,
His entrance into her life, the good it's done
Her sins are behind her,
her true salvation's won
She is what she quietly claims
and what she claims is so very true
Her light nearly outshines
the good she will do
May this flow never stop
and let it cut a trench in hearts so deep
That those who drink,
its message will always keep

Written for my friend, Karen Hagen Payne
who carries the lamp of faith with her
wherever she goes.
Her light has shone on me, I hope it will
shine on you. Over great adversity she has
overcome and has chosen to let her life be
an example of what faith can do.

Proverbs 16:24
Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,
Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.
