Winter Wind : One Year Of Passages And Poems
$13.49
Poetry gives you a concise and heightened sense of reality according to author, poet and “romantic rationalist” Tom Despard. Here each poem “wrestles” with a single Bible verse to unearth its nugget of truth and flush out deeper layers of meaning — provoking fresh spiritual introspection and responses.
Winter Wind awakens the imagination in fifty-two weekly Scripture passages set against teaching and touching poetry and timely “Sharpening the Soul” challenging questions that will encourage you in your journey through the year. This collection is interactive and thought and emotion provoking. From its concluding poem “Runner’s Race”:
How will an elegy verse my life?
An overcomer of struggles and strife?
A knower and lover of the Lord?
A Word-doer wielding Spirit’s sword?
Run the race coursing Heaven’s track,
Run the race as if done, looking back.
