He Is HereOf course God is here take a look at our Earth He resides in the Seasons He is here during Birth He is here in our darkness and is feeling our pain When we question and doubt He is here just the same God is present at Sunrise and the end of each Day and he hears our heart speak when we've no words to say God is here in our reaching He is guiding our needs He is weeping beside us for our harrowing deeds God believes in our courage when we cannot endure He leans in and pushes His loving touch, pure God is here in our Playtime Compassion and Peace He is here when our aging forms shudder and cease He is with us in Battle when we act out of Hate when we raise words in Anger when our Burdens are great I believe God is present in each moment's embrace in each breath we are given flows our God's living Grace |

Michael, Rex...thank you both. I was inspired to write this last night after reading another post asking "Where Is He?" I don't recall who posted it, but it was their questioning that caused me to feel, think and write, so they deserve the credit for propelling my words into verse. Thank you both for reading. ![]() ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Claire, What a wonderful, refreshing poem this is. We don't think enough about how God sees everything we are and everything we do all the time. You have captured this beautifully. Mary |

Claire~ Some do not look for Him ... but He sees them just the same. 'he hears our heart speak when we've no words to say' I appreciate your thoughts. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Excellent Meadowmuse....belief in a Grand Creator has been diminishing in the last tweny years or more. However, those with a heart realize that God exists because their heart allows them to feel his presence and witness the wonders of his creation....like it states in the Bible.... "Faith is the ASSURED expectation of things hoped for, the EVIDENT demonstration of realities though not beheld." (New English Bible) example...we can feel the wind and the effects of it even though we can't see it.. we know electricity exists because of the results it produces but we can't see it. The same thing applies with our realization that God is existing amoung us. Just a spiritually deep wonderfully written piece of work Meadowmuse... |

I feel him, I know he is here.....I am glad that others share in this feeling. Very beautifully written and full of spirit. The writer you speak of, as I just came across it is BigPimpinSk8tr. I am glad you came across it as it inspired a wonderful poem. ![]() Jenn E |
