Shine- A Poem by David Ritter

Spiritual Poems Leave a comment

A call to “shine” brightly for Christ. This inspiring poem encourages readers to spread faith, hope, love, and light in a world filled with darkness.

Shine

Let our light shine bright
for all the world to see
what God has done for you
and what God has done for me

Let our light shine faith
inspiring others to believe
on how to escape the darkness
from the evil that deceives

Let our light shine hope
for those stuck in sin
and show that nasty devil
that Jesus will win

Let our light shine love
in a world full of hate
and pray He saves others
before it’s too late

Let our light shine bright
may it never grow dim
by bringing honor, glory
and worship to Him

David Ritter

In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father. Matthew 5:16 NLT

MEMORIES FOR KEEPS

A collection of poetry that reveals one man’s feelings about the world around him. With spirituality the centerpiece of most of his writings, the author touches the hearts and minds of readers with hope, peace, love, humility, wisdom, and wit. While tackling topics ranging from grief to fatherhood, from addictions to friendships, this writer captures the essence of a born-again, alcoholic dad who is grateful to have finally found serenity in life. Today, through this collection of both old and new works, he shares that serenity with you!

BOTTLED MEMORIES

These stand-alone poems were written over many years. While individually they describe the conflicts associated with alcoholism, when read together they reveal a more complete picture of the destruction, depression, and chaos of addiction, as well as the peace, hope, and joy of recovery. Although most of these poems pertain to my life, it is my hope that other people will relate to them also. It’s not only my story but the story of so many others.
