You watched me suffer Lord,

but You did not let me die!

You were always there for me,

even though I couldn't see You with my eyes!

You watched me as I fell Lord!

You watched me shed many a tear!

When I couldn't feel Your Presence,

You Dear Lord,

were always there!

You will never leave or forsake us!

The Bible says this is true!

It's not You who walks away from the people Lord!

It's the people who walk away from You!

The last 2 lines say it all.  I've often said, we, His children, are like toddlers who cover their eyes and think we can't see them.  We shield ours from Him, then think He's not there for us.

   God bless,

Its amazing how he will leave the flock to attend to the sheep who is lost. I could have never gotten through life without this truth. Nice poem.

Ah, my dear, this is so true. God does not cause pain, He allows it for reasons of His own. He does not ever leave us, we walk away from Him. Such truth. People are so quick to not believe in God, until there is a need to blame something bad on. Then is is God's fault. We are so wrong about this. Great Poem.

Hugs,
Marie

Thank you Raven and Marie for taking the time to read and comment on the work The Lord is having me do! I do know that I give The Lord ALL OF THE GLORY! If He would not have saved me from myself, I know where I would be right now! Thank God for His Grace!
