A Raining Of Tear Drops Fall

Off in the distance
lay purpled mountains
reaching for the heavens,
when one gazes upon them
it takes on the appearance
of a mans silhouette
facing towards God’s domain.

I often wonder if I where as large
would God hear my prayers more?
for a small and  simple
minded soul am I.

My faith in times past and
even know wavers greatly
but I keep upon bent knee
striving to be heard for even
one voice can move mountains
if from a sincere heart and
true seat of the soul.

I stand tall in times of plenty
forgetting my maker’s pledge
it seems to be one of mans traits
to walk with blinders when all is right,
when one can seemingly stand
a-foot on his own.

But in this time of dismay
if the eye could catch sight of
all the pleadings ascending to heaven
and tears drenching the earth’s crust
the soul would surely grow heavy
and weakened.

For an out-pouring of beseeching
has been thrust upon mankind,
for wicked men with evil actions
have plagued our total existence
capsizing our realities and so in
these days a raining of tear drops fall.

Yet our maker is strong enough
for all burden and pain,
spent tears and diminishing of life
for in him all was created,
and in Him all shall be made right!

In this time of turmoil and unrest
may I remember that this is when
God is with me all of the time
never forsaking His promise
not making my portion more
than I can bare.

Should I fall lax in my devotion
I pray He touches my soul with
gentle reminder and shows me
plainly his love unending and true
for I am weak.

The sun now raised beyond the horizon
obscuring my sight of the humble faces
peering to heavens realm,
I pray to God ceaselessly for
wisdom, faith and for
all of those in need of his comfort.

Amen

This is a repost, but hoping
my pen starts flowing again.

We have to be reminded that He exist!"

(big hugggsssssssss) Oh Ellen, this is so beautiful and so very heartfelt, sweet friend, I too pray the same that he can reach out to every one of us and all can find the courage to embrace love and all the wicked ways can disintegrate and the worms of faith to nurture the soils, the foundation of love!
