Study Room Guidelines

Ok it isn't so quiet in here but our resident librarian will ensure that there is good discussion on literature, prose, poetry, etc. You may also post sermons, notes, and the like as long as it is not copyrighted material and within reason of the post length regulation.

We encourage you to take a lose look at the threads and offer honest and useful input. This forum is a place where we discuss literature of any media, as well as personal creations by some of our own wordsmiths. Debate is encouraged, but we often find ourselves relaxing here.

  • The Light Beyond the Window

    person-731267_1920.jpg

    The light beyond the window shines
    Into this murky room;
    Sparing me the horror
    Of life in utter gloom.

    It dances on the floorboards
    And sparkles on the tiles;
    Lifting me onto my feet
    To go that extra mile.

    Without it I could never see
    The beauty on display
    In flowers, trees, in birds and beasts,
    In life that finds a way.

    I press against the window
    And shield my eyes to view
    The source of this great radiance:
    So pure, so bright, so true.

    Defining and uplifting all
    To be their greatest selves
    With courage to keep going
    And eagerness to delve

    Into the noblest mysteries
    Of being, thought and deed;
    Not shirking from the questions
    Of our lives’ deepest need

    For meaning, purpose, value, hope,
    When all arounds seems lost;
    What core thing we should cling to
    When all else must be tossed

    The fortitude to see it through
    And keep our solemn vow;
    Ensnaring vanities avoid
    Until we humbly bow

    Before the throne of judgment
    When our works show their worth,
    And our heads will lift to see
    New heaven and new earth.
