Poetry Thursday 134 - Precious Words

 The Trump administration, MAGA, is convinced they are doing God's work. They are entitled to their opinion. After this week's attack on Iran I felt this poem/prayer was relevant. 



God is in the Rain

 

When we pray to God looking to the skies

we see the clouds before our eyes,

and as we pray to God we ask questions

for ourselves and others, for His suggestions,

on how to live each and every day

and keep illness, fear and trouble at bay.

 

When we pray to God looking to the skies

we see endless expanse before our eyes,

and as we pray to God we confess our sins

looking for the peace His forgiveness brings

to our aching souls and tortured lives,

bringing gentleness that we may survive.

 

When we pray to God looking to the skies

we see the sun before our eyes,

and as we pray to God we give our vow

to live as He would expect from now

so that the world will be a better place

for us and the rest of the human race.

 

When we pray to God looking to the skies

we see drops of rain before our eyes,

but as we pray to God we fail to see

the extent and infinite care that He

lavishes on us time and again,

as frequently as every drop of rain.
