Wales' Tales 9/15/14



No one knows what tomorrow holds
Except the heart of God,
No one understands the flow of time
In which we humans trod.
No one sees the ebb and flow that makes
Our lives complete.
Only God who reigns above is aware
in the judgment seat.
Human beings don’t like to think about
A judgment time.
It seems too hard to comprehend,
A mount too tall to climb.
Why should a God who created things
Require that justice grow?
Why would God care about such things
Or even want to know?
But that assumes that God is one who
Stands a long way off,
A being not involved with us, or so the
Doubters scoff.
But God has shown great love for us,
By sending the true Son,
To live amongst the common folk,
The chosen holy One.
Through Him, God knows the strife of life,
The joy, the pain, the tears.
The hungers and the gratitude,
The challenge and the fears.
Through Him, God sees the seasons change,
And knows the way we live,
Responds to what we need and want,
Discovers how we give
The promise of commitment, the call of faith and sin,
And sees how we require love
That lets us truly win.
Let justice flow like rivers. Let mercy never cease.
Let all God’s children live in joy and share the gift of …
                                                                        Peace,
