| We've been blessed with a reflection of the heart of Christ, touching us with a fresh, renewed passion for the lost in this book of poetry. This is not poetry reflection of the shallow heart of man, but one looking into the depths of a mountain pool, the beauty and passion of the very heart of God. - Jay Peavler Clyde Watanabe has taken life experience and turned it into prose and praise towards God. He speaks from his heart in such a way that his poetry will speak to yours as well. - Steve Shumaker, Pastor First Baptist Church, Atwater, Ca. Because of his life journey and deep devotion to God, Clyde is uniquely qualified to write for Him. Using a poet's heart with a common, down-to-earth style, he uses verse to communicate God's timeless message. These poems will educate, elevate, exhilarate; in short, resonate with all who take the time to read them. - Dan Fisher, Senior pastor Trinity Baptist Church Yukon, Oklahoma author of Shaken, Not Stirred |
| Inspirations of Grace provides a refreshing and yet thought provoking view of a true Christian's daily walk with God. Reading a poem a day not only brings me back into fellowship with my Lord, but also reminds me that I am not alone in my less-than-perfect daily walk. Inspirations of Grace would be a great addition to any public or personal library! |
| Unfailing Love CLYDE I MUST TELL YOU THAT YOUR POEMS ARE A TRUE WORK OF GOD,AN THEY ARE SUCH A BLESSING TO ME. I FEEL IT'S AN HONOR THAT GOD LET YOU BLESS ME WITH THEM.... IM NOT SAYING THIS LIGHTLY BECAUSE THE WORLD WILL KNOW OF THEM. MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU AN YOUR FAMILY |
| Hi Clyde...Your poems are truly inspriring and have made me think about the way of my life. You have put your heart and soul into your writings. Believe me they have touched me. Keep it up and keep the light alive in us all. |
| Have You forsaken Me? Thank you Clyde for this moving poem and the comment after it. It is so comforting to know, during the darkest hours (which we all go through at some time or other), that Jesus never leaves or forsakes us but comforts and strengthens, upholding us in His hand. I love the scripture that says the things we go through are nothing compared to the GLORY we are going to receive! |
| Midnight Hours I believe that poetry is the language of God's love. When He speaks to that deepest part of our hearts, the part we keep so hidden from everyone else, He speaks in His poetic picture language that says more than all the lectures in the world. That is why when we share that with others, it goes so deep and touches their hearts in such an amazing way. Your poems have that quality of God's ministry, first to you and so they naturally minister to others. Praise the Lord for His work in you |
| Masterpiece in the Making Such easy reading with great meaning and truth; all love comes from the heart and our meditation with Jesus in the throne room. Clyde, you made my day. I was feeling weary because of my love for my sister and knowing what she is about to face. God knew you needed to call.. amazing after all this time. We passed through each other's life for a reason and it is great to know we are connected thru Christ. |
| The Hearts of Your People This poem is a real inspiration to me. Our bodies are a living temple & no building is necessary to recieve GOD'S love & grace - no steeples. Thanks for the beautiful poem. |
| Keep Me in the Cleansing Fire Hi Clyde, I really enjoyed your poem. One of the scriptures that I've held on to throughout the years of my Christian walk is Job 23:10 "But I know the way that you take, once I have tried you, you shall come forth as gold". Although it has been hard going through the fires, I am really thankful for all that I've been through and for the work The Lord has done in my life through these experiences and as you say, I havn't gone through them alone, He's been there with me. |
| Undeniable Truth This poem is about the hopelessness of man and Christ's initiative to dwell with mankind to save those who trust in Him. |
| I'm Alive in Your Tears Thanks, Clyde, for the poem, it's beautiful. Sorrow and hardships are tough to take but certainly they lead us to the Lord if we let them. God bless! |
