When I was angry with
God
Placing a
grain of sand in my hand
I thought if
I were
this grain
of sand
dropped on
the beach
I could
never be found.
In this
universe I am less
than a grain
of sand,
I am
infinitesimal
and I have
been found
because I
Am.
Peace
Remembering
you
forgetting
me
I take my
first step
to being
free:
Free of pain,
free of
sorrow,
free of fear
about
tomorrow.
Jesus the
alive
Jesus who died
Jesus with
whom
we are
crucified
pours on me
sweat, blood,
tears-
I’m dripping
wet
with love.
Both poems are inspirational. I liked the first
ReplyDelete"When I was angry with God" Sometimes we feel overwhelmed and can't always see the light. However, it is always there.
