Under the arbor of my soul,
with my First Love, I sit and rest
the fragrance of His grace
reminds me of how much I’m blessed.
On the trellis of my mind,
He supports my every limb
He reinforces His love for me
so I may lean evermore on Him.
Beneath the lattice of my heart,
there lies an undying devotion
and the mercy He has for me
consumes me with raw emotion.
He is the framework of my faith,
my life in Jesus is forever entwined
and the love I found under the arbor
is of His plan and by His design!

Jeremiah 29:11
King James Version
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,
saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.”

I mailed it to cousin Theresa, and she got it today and called me–she just LOVES it, and wanted me to tell you!! She said she could picture the arbor so well–that you write beautifully. And she wishes she could write like you and I!!
