Dear God

When my heart weeps sore to feel its loss,
I gaze on You
I cannot see, my vision blurred
But trust in You, by faith bestirred.

I lift my hand, in batt’ring storm
To touch Your Hand
The giving Hand, the taking Hand;
Now gentle One, the healing Hand.

I cannot claim to understand,
But honor You,
For You are God, the Sovereign One
Beyond Your thoughts, are simply none.

And in that faith You gave within,
I believe You,
I glimpse You; pure joy wells upward
To grasp through pain, a loving Lord.

-for Isaac’s mother, whose faith is beautiful-

    Leeny, that’s beautiful. Your faith is beautiful. God is so amazing it makes me cry. But it’s so hard not ask big questions like- ‘why?’ That’s not for us to know- just yet. Love you. Take care.

    That poem is so beautiful. God is sooo wonderful.
    I often ask God why He let this happen. But He has a reson for everything.
