By the Grace of God
In the darkest of moments
when I feel alone
I pray to you my Heavenly Father
and know that my pain is known.
In my times of trials
when happiness seems so far
I look up towards the heavens
and know just where you are.
In my hours of fear
when Satan's hand seems o'er me
I bow my head, fold my arms
and pray on bended knee.
During the raging tempest
when the storm feels to strong
I am carried by my Saviour
who was with me all along.
For I was never left alone
to be lost or downtrod
For I, and all mankind are saved
by the Grace of God.

Jessica writes some of the most beautiful poems I have read. I don't know where she got this talent from. Both sides of Doug's and my family have several people who write poems. She is very talented and gifted in writing. I have encouraged her to write a book. She is putting her poems together in book form for one of her Personal Progress Projects. She wrote this about three weeks ago and I just had to share it with you.

That is an incredible poem, I agree she needs to publish a book if the rest are anything like that.
That was awesome! That would be beautiful to put to music...
Renee, you truly have been blessed with a special daughter in so many ways. She has always been a joy to watch in Young Women's. She's always is trying to be friendly or set a good example to those around her. You did good with that one!
Wow that is so impressive!!! I don't think I personly know anyone who can write like that! It brought a tear to my eye...she should get that publish in the Ensign! You raise them up write, you go girl!
