Introduction: This spring, I had the task of making an artistic interpretation of my faith journey for an assignment in my Christian Formation and Ministry class. The poem that I wrote as a result is what I have shared here. I hope you enjoy it. 🙂

As clay is molded

into something with shape and purpose 

So the Lord is forming me 

Into the woman He wants me to be

From Creator and Savior

To Lord and Friend

From Master and Guide

To the Love of my life

My understanding of who He is has grown 

Has become more full

And as I get into His Word

I feel this pull

Through abundance of faith and drought

Through many questions and doubt

He has been with me

And the moments I knew His Spirit was speaking 

 Loud and clear

 I felt His presence with me

 And He drew me near 

I don’t know everything 

But even if I could

I would still need to trust that God is good

 This is the priceless journey

 The LORD has crafted for me 

 To know Love Himself.
