DOES GOD CRY?

                                 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 "Does God Cry?"

           A little girl once asked, "Mommy does God cry?"
      "Don't be silly, God can't cry baby," her mother replied.
     "But what about when He looks down from Heaven above
                 And sees all the people who needs His love?
              And what about when He looks down and sees
            The playground kids fall and scrape their knees?

   Or how about Aunt Jane who can't have baby girls or boys?
   Or what about the poor kids who gets no Christmas toys?
      Maybe God would cry if He lived with my friend Tommy.
       Whose daddy beats and bruises him and his mommy.

      Or maybe if He looked down and saw people being killed,
             I think He'd surely have eyes that are tear filled.
         But I think most of all, mommy, what would have made God cry, Is
when He looked down at the cross and watched His baby die."

     The mother stood in silence as her eyes filled with tears,
        For she knew her little girl was wise beyond her years.
Staring into deep blue eyes, the mother found courage to say,
  "Yes baby girl, I think God looks down and cries every day."

WHAT MAKES ME...

 

 

 

 

 

 

What makes me weak? My fears
What makes me whole? My God
What keeps me standing? My faith
What makes me compassionate? My selflessness
What makes me honest? My integrity
What sustains my mind? My quest for knowledge
What teaches me all lessons? My mistakes
What lift's my head high? My pride
What if I can't go on? Not an option
What makes me victorious? My courage to climb
What makes me competent? My confidence
What makes me sensual? My insatiable essence
What makes me beautiful? My everything
What makes me a human? My heart
Who says I need love? I do
What empowers me? My God & Me
