Have you ever wondered, how our life would be, had there been No Jesus, who would die and set us free. Have you ever wondered, what would be come of man, if we had No Hope of a fairer land. Have you ever wondered, if we could never pray, when that was all we had, to get us through the day. Have you ever wondered, if our eyes they could not see, the gifts that God had gave us, from sea to shining sea. Have you ever wondered, if we could not touch, the things that God had gave us, in our lives that meant so much. Have you ever wondered, when our hearts seem broke inside, who would wipe the tears away, and give our face a smile. Have you ever wondered, in the darkest of the night, who would give us peace again, when it seems, there's none in sight. I'M SO VERY THANKFUL, that he LOVED us so, THAT I NEVER HAVE TO WONDER, because he lets me know. He proved it on that cross that day, when he hung between two Thieves, He died to save a world so lost, he died to set us free. With every step I take, and every breath I breathe, the only thing I'll wonder is, (LORD WHAT CAN I DO FOR THEE).

Dear Sandy; Thank you for this moving poem, I often feel the same way. I can't imagine my life without His love. I find myself praying for those in pain, alone, and without faith. We are truly blessed. Ellie 02 |

I just love your work! Thank God for bringing you here to us! What messages you bring across in your poetry. Often wonder I do, but I've been without him, not knowing him and saw where my life was without him. I know now that I have him, I can't do it without him. <*\\\>< There's only two ways you can go... One way you can save your riches, And the other will save your soul. Rich Mullins |

Another great writing. It's so sad that everyone here relates to this so well, but the blind (lost) are looking through the other end of the glass thinking it's too confining to follow our Lord. Your life and works may be just the thing to spur their interest. You're beautiful. |

Wow! Sandra, you said it all so nicely-and laid it out so well. I am touched and impressed by your poem, and the obvious attachment and devotion that prompted it. God bless you Friend,as you bless many by such words, David "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |

Sandy~ I've never wondered about His not being. Can't begin to imagine it. Thank you for this. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

I am so glad I don't have to wonder, when he died for us he took the wonder away, what a Wonderful God we serve. Thanks for your wonderful comments. Sandy OWPEMT Sandra Jean Perry Patton |
