This poem by Delores Stowe of Coos Bay, Oregon USA was written in 1996 shortly before she died of cancer. She gave us permission to share it on the web. It is humbling to know that she wrote this knowing that the end of her life was very near…

His Presence – by Delores Stowe

In the presence of the Master
There I find myself at peace.
All the sad and false illusions
Find there death beneath His feet.
So I’ll always seek His presence
When this world sends forth its call,
For I know He’ll always answer
“Lo, I’m here, you cannot fall!”
So through this world, as I travel
With perfect faith in Him my guide
I’ll seek to help all others
Who wish to journey at His side.
I’ll be a channel for His glory
A servant of the God on high,
Until He calls me home again
To my rest beyond the skies.
