I sought God at the local church But it was just a building you see and though I looked and prayed God was not there for me I walked around the city seeking the One to whom I prayed needing answers, needing hope for a life tattered and frayed At dawn I found myself downtown on an unknown street and it was there I found an answer - oh so sweet! The sound of happy laughter drifted in the morning air I heard the sound of children Singing a joyful prayer So effortlessly I joined them sharing their song of heaven’s care they danced and laughed at my tears as finally, my heart found God there. When life was dark and I despaired I was lifted up on Angel's wings, shown that God is everywhere; now in His love, my heart sings |

Very well said, PdV. God is everywhere. When we are down, He is always there to lift us back up if we allow Him. Michael |

PdV I loved it! Sometimes we wander those lonely "streets." Thank God He's always there. It's great to feel it though! Thank you! |

This is a grat poem. You heartfully show that you can find God anywhere not just in church. God's everywhere, it is amazing where you can find yourself giving your life over to Him. It doesnt have to be in a church, and I think this is something many people need to read, to realize that as well! Great job! Thank you for sharing! ------------------ ~*~ Time erases and rewrites all the lines. What remains is the poetry! ~*~ |

I was in tears by the time i reach the last line as i'm so lost at the moment regarding my faith. I do believe in him yet i feel so lost most of the time with everything that is going on in life... ( I'm brought up going to the cath. church,budist temple and gudwara-its the prayer home of Sikhs)That's what happens when ure mix-parentage.. As i read ure poem i do hope i would find the peace that you had found.. For i fear i'm losing faith too soon too fast... *sighs* i wonder why do people go through doubts  ViNa Love CoMeS To ThOsE WhO Still HoPe AlThOuGh They've BeeN DiSaPpOiNteD,To ThOsE WhO StiLL BeLiEvE AlThOuGh ThEy'Ve BeeN BeTraYeD,LoVe KeEpS ThEm GoInG |
