“And see His glory
His caring love
Every time ‘…Only believe…’”

“Flame burning high And strong
Vibrant hope In my heart I believe
That God will do What is best
What is loving
It may
Or may not be
What I would like
It could be different
Or even better Than I imagine”

“Did Your power
Gush back in
From leaving Adam?
A gale
With a force That shook The ground
Around You
Making Heaven gasp From the intensity Of the impact
And did You feel it Return in You
With sadness In Your heart
Even though You knew It would happen”

Another excellent collection of poems by Louise Bélanger! This one, Your Words Your Love, feels like it is both poetry and evangelism/devotional as Louise explores various aspects of God and His effect and purpose. I loved that her words, which do often feel like my words, showcase His creation (both the beauty and our fall in it) as well as His power and sovereignty as well as His purpose in our lives and what a forgiven and grace filled life can be. As always, I enjoy the photographs that accompany the poetry as it takes the book to a whole other level. I enjoyed all of the poems, but “Did It?” And “Forty Times” were my two personal favorites. Well done, Louise!

I r eceived this book free from Netgalley and publisher BooksGoSocial in exchange for an honest review.
