We failed
...And corrupted
But all
...Are within Your wisdom.


I use to think you're disppointed
Then I think you're just hurt.

Our foolish words
Are sharpen spear
To your heart...

Yet you continue
To open your arms
Longing for...
Our love in You
...and for others.

I am a lost newcomer
Who has lost her faith...

Then...
One day I met a bus driver
Who belonged
To the same church as I do.
He started sharing his experience with God,
And each day on the bus...was
Was a blessing to my heart.

God knows
How to keep in touch with us.

He touches us in his special way,
He...
Comes in all forms,
Appears anywhere.
He...
He blessed me so much that
I...
Even this moment I may not be thankful,
I...
I can dare say there is a God...
Named Jesus.

aries - you know when you spoke about the bus driver....I remember reading "some have entertained angels without even knowing." This is a very good piece. Keep the faith! Chris

Better than you think. Very nice.

I'm a reader - not a writer.

Eliza:  I thought this was very good! It is so believeable.  I often talk to people I meet about my faith, so can imagine you and the bus driver also sharing this conversation.
