Early Morning Praise


Palm trees sway to silent breezes
Crying clouds gently weep
Lightnings flash and thunders roll
And wakes me from my sleep.


Not Mother Nature, but Father God
Displays His wondrous power
For without His creative touch
She couldn’t produce one flower.


I wonder as God shows His passion
His awesome love for each one
How we got so mixed up
And forget to acknowledge His Son.


So I lay in my bed and I praise Him
The one who created each one.
My one God, my heavenly Father
My redeemer, my Savior…His Son.



as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

lacydee,

What a most wonderful "Early Morning Praise" to Jesus and a most insightful acknowledgement of God as being the Creator.

My favorite stanza from your poem was...

quote:
Not Mother Nature, but Father God
Displays His wondrous power
For without His creative touch
She couldn’t produce one flower.


...because it really puts God on His rightful Throne or position over the creation that He created and shines a bit more filtered light on Mother Nature.

Enjoyed reading and God bless.

-Bob
