"Beautiful words stir my heart.
I will recite a lovely poem about the king,
for my tongue is like the pen of a skillful poet."   Psalm 45:1            

Joanna Gilbert-Hilton -Skillful Poetess 

I recently met, Joanna Gilbert-Hilton, at a Florida radio station, while accompanying, Becky Dvorak for an interview with Carol Henry, at WKTO.  Becky had just authored her first book, "Dare To Believe", published by Destiny Image.

(You’ll have to wait to read more about Becky and the miracles she and her husband's been privy to witness  in a later scheduled  blog from, "Prime The Well"/ "Picture This~").

The first thing I notice about, Joanna was her sublime English accent; I love to listen to people speak in British accents, they sound so proper and artfully expressive. I shouldn’t be surprise then to find out that Joanna is the author of a poetry book, and recently awarded “Editor’s Choice” for outstanding achievement in poetry; by the International Library of Poetry.

Her published book titled, "Reflections Of His Glory- Candles of the Soul Poetry,"  is illustrated with scenic photos, taken by her daughter, Nina Collins; the pictures give us a glimpse into the soul of every poem; the book is appropriately so sub-titled; Candles of the Soul Poetry.

Every poem penned, is about Father God and His attributes; His love, his faithfulness to us, the peace available that quiets our frantic thoughts, and of course the power of His authorative Word.  
Everything about His glory she highlights in her poems.

It’s a small book, containing twenty-two poems bursting with expression to fill up your senses with a comforting peacefulness.  If your habit is bedtime reading, you're sure to experience the sweetest sleep.

As I read these poems, I realized how God was speaking right through Joanna  to my heart. She is a conduit of God’s caring hand to individuals she may never meet.  There is one poem expressly impacting, “Step By Step”. 

Step By Step

By Joanna Gilbert-Hilton

When pangs of sorrow or past regret
Make life uphill and hard to bear,
Pause a moment, remember, and let
Happier memories their presence share.

For oftentimes when we are down
Showers can seem like pouring rain.
There is no need to doubt and frown.
Trust God! He’ll raise you up again.

All nature sings to us of His blessing-
Created, fashioned, for our pleasure.
See with spiritual eyes, glory possessing;
God rent the veil! Inestimable treasure…

He will perfect His great plan for you;
Your life undergo a divine turnaround.
Step by Step He'll lead you through-
Peace under His almighty wings found.
