I am from…

I am from potting soil, from Miracle Grow and made for a specific purpose.Loni's Contest

I am from the back-yard. I am from the family of the lilies; and my color is blue.

I am from a family of hope and I am joyful; from Peter and Kim and we are known as the Brueck family.

I am from the joy in the morning and relaxing at night. From being the apple of His eye and His precious thing.

I am from hope that comes from the grace that flows from His throne alone, and have been sealed with the Holy Spirit.

I’m from German soil , Kartoffel Salad and Wuerstchen.

From the long line of believers who trust that salvation was paid for at the cross, once and for all; the hope is only found at the foot of the cross, and that Christ paid for it on my behalf.

I am from dust and to dust I shall return until He comes for my body to glorify it.

  1. Right on girl – that SO rocks!! Really, it does. Is this contest on votes or just by a judge? When does it end? I’ll have to stop back by her site as I forgot. I’m bad at remembering, have you noticed?! Hmm…

    I loved this.

  2. That is so beautiful. Just so wonderful – I love it!!!!

    I want to write one of these, but i have read so many incredible ones that I am so intimidated. Maybe I will try, but I don’t know…

  3. Oh Iris! This is FABULOUS! I love it. You are a fantastic writer. This reminds me, I did an “I am from” poem last year, I had forgotten all about it, you have inspired me to write another one 🙂

  4. Your contest entry brought tears to my eyes. It’s so awesome to me to read of the praise you give Him and I want you to know that your words inspire me.
