MY HUMBLE BACKGROUND



 

WELCOME to my little corner of the World.  Come in, rest a while, and let God speak to your deepest needs, Spirit to spirit.  Allow Him to encourage, inspire and bring you comfort and joy in your heart, through His abiding peace.  May you will find a true meeting of minds and spirits, as God's Holy Word is creatively expressed from the hearts of many of His cherished children from around the World. 

My name is Sylvia Lavallée.  I was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland.  When I was 3 years old, my family moved to the Island and Royal Manor of Portland (AKA: "Jurassic Island") on the south-west coast of Dorsetshire, England.  Check out this website for the Island's   At the age of 17, I left the Island to join the Woman's Royal Air Force, and have virtually been, "on-tour" ever since, having lived in many parts of the U.K.,  as well as in Asia and Canada.  I am proud to be the holder of dual citizenship for both Canada and England.  In 2007,  after living in Canada for 30 years with my husband Jacques (a Canadian Navy Officer) we made the big move, "across the pond" and back to England, to become the official, "Carers" of my aging parents.  This has been a huge endeavour, but we know that God has called us to do it, and He is honouring our commitment to that call by richly blessing us all.  We are born-again Christians, and Spirit-filled disciples of Jesus Christ, who is our Lord and our Saviour.  My husband Jacques is the Co-Pastor of our local church    where we are both completely and fully committed to ministering in whatever way the Lord calls us to do so.  We live to worship, praise and honour God for His great and mighty, all powerful gift of salvation.  Our deepest desire is to mature in our Holy faith, so that we might help other true seekers of God find, "The Way, The Truth and The Life, through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

My many interests include quilting, oil-painting, sewing, reading Christian books, and music (listening to and playing, worship music).   I am the percussionist with our Worship Team at, "Fellowship On The Rock" in Portland, Dorset, England (Djembe, chimes, shakers  and other "noise makers").  Also, I am teaching myself to read music and play the Keyboard, which I enjoy immensely.  Poetry though, remains one of the sweetest gifts God has ever given to me, and is a true source of joy, and a wealth of great delight. I find the greatest pleasure in both writing and reading Christian poetry, as it always leads me to the source of all wisdom and truth, our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God.  Christian poetry, as inspired by God's Holy Word, fills me with a deep and abiding assurance, that God truly is my Heavenly Father, and I am His precious, dearly beloved, child. I know I am His Princess (for my name Sylvia means, "God's Princess"). 

Christian Poets Corner is dedicated to my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.  Here I have gathered a large volume of excellent poetry from Christian poets around the World.  My hope is that through poetry, many good seeds will be sown in the longing hearts of all who desire to more fully experience God's love.  My prayer is that, we Christian poets, may be counted amongst the most brilliant lights shining, in the ever increasing darkness of this present World.  My hope and prayer is that the poetry on the following pages will bless, inspire, nourish and enrichen your life, and become a bright shining light of revelation to your spirit.  May all of these wonderfully insightful, poetic inspirations bring you a great measure of comfort and encouragement, and may they fill your hearts and spirits with the amazing love, joy, and peace of God, to whom all glory and honour is given...for He alone is worthy to be praised.
