It encourages us to depend upon the higher divine power in times of adversity, experience the power of faith and prayer, and not feel despondent about lifes crises and turmoil. We must rely upon the hands of God to clear all obstacles when human powers are limited, and we must be hopeful and try again without losing faith. This collection contains beautiful images created for every poem to help relax the mind, body, and soul. Author Annie Peralta has included poems on topics from the beauty of a day at the beach to Gods wondrous task, with the intention of helping young readers and inspiring their faith. Childlike Simplicity Innocent, pure, simple and trusting Is what a childs heart Empty of pride, open to good Desirous of nothing, undemanding And always believing To do good things and please God You neither need radiance nor beauty Or intelligence, wealth or popularity You can give Him, what He wants of you More innocence and greater childlike simplicity
