Void

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness
was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God
was hovering over the waters.NIV Genesis 1:2

Are there no heavens
is there no earth
no sun, no planets
no death, no birth?

Is nothing living
or nothing dead
no God in Heaven
no blood to shed?

Is all just darkness
void everywhere
except atheists
are they still there?

In darkness of night
still not knowing?
as man is growing
God is filling,

Void.

(sigh) Soooooooo wonderfully said, sweet friend, the wise words of the Good Book echo in your beautiful words! (smiles) And then He created light and divided it from darkness and made it the day and the night and life became made! (big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Newell, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

With God there is no void

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
