WHY?

Just something to ponder. I ponder all the time however I can never answer.

WHY

Why do we hate?
    When we should love
Why do we shove?
   When we are running late

 Why do we snicker and snarl?
     When we should embrace
Why do we quarrel?
    When we should be giving grace

 Why do we judge and pretend?
   When we should be accepting
Why do we ignore a friend?
   When we should be helping

 When do we show love?
   When do we show mercy?
When do we show grace?
   Now is the time to embrace
Now is the time to tell someone you love them
   Now is the time to forgive

 Why must someone die
    Before we show them how much they are loved
Why must we live on lies?
    When we should be listening to Our God above
Why must we drown in pain and sorrow?
    When we can swim in the waters of happiness
Why must we put off till tomorrow?
    When we can spend today giving forgiveness

 When do we show love?
    When do we show mercy?
When do we show grace?
   Now is the time to embrace
Now is the time to tell someone you love them
   Now is the time to forgive

 The choice is yours
The time is NOW.

This poetry is not only Praise to God but it is also a testimony of His work in my life. Even when I haven't paid attention, He was there through it all. God Loves Me even though I am not perfect and that's enough for me.

About Me

My photo
We all have gifts given to us by The Lord God above even before we were a glint in our parents eye. The Lord designed each one of us to have a gift. What we choose to do with the gifts he gives us is what matters. I chose to share my gift with the world. I'm not a professional. I have had no educational training in poetry writing other than basic english that they teach you in school. All my poems are inspired by God's word and the desire to have a better relationship with him. I have also been inspired by life events that God has led me to healing for. I am a mother of 2 boys trying to do my best to please the father and raise my boys to live the same way.
