When God's Hands Touched Us If only for a while, I would wish to have you near me, to hold and be held as if there was no tomorrow. Not in fear, but in the tightest of holds, secure in the knowledge that I am and you are, and that together we shall be, and share all. a love that can defy anything a trust that cannever be broken a warmth that never needs to be heated a coolness to survive even the hardest of times a peace that sustains and allows a gathering of strength to grow and to stand tall against all odds, as we have in these years since we first met when God's hands touched us, with a love, so gentle that it brings tears to my eyes just remembering. Remembering all the moments and even now I can't recall any like those we are living through today... Sometimes I think that we have shared and loved too much and it was too easy... and now for whatever the reasons we are being tested. I remember failure as if it was just yesterday. It use to devastate me when young and usually it was due to misunderstanding or not studying hard enough. I am unprepared for this test, one of wills and fortitude. All we can do is take "a make-up" over and over again, hoping that you and I (we) can correct our mistakes and be "right" again. |

This was a very good poem. God certainly does have quite a bit of love to offer, in fact an infinite amount, probably. Very good piece of writing! |

MMoonchild this is a beautiful lament and reminder that we have all been touched by God and sometime, and a reminder to remember and be grateful.. When this has finished here, perhaps you might get one of us moderator's to move it to the spiritual forum for you, I'm sure they'd like it over there too!! I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Maureen, Beautiful. Love changes, Love grows, but Love never dies. God touches each of us in our own special way and it's usually through our loved ones. What a lovely thought. Take care and keep smiling softly. misscris 'remember, we are only on loan from God to each other for a short while, relish it. |

This was beautifully written...such longing portrayed. God touches us in so many ways, that even loss can be turned into something good by His touch. Linda |
