Prayers

http://realchristianity.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/prayer.jpg 
 
For all the time passed by,
So many questions asked why,
If only being able to ask one,
What would that be for?
 
Wanting to ask if I have a purpose,
Or if I am just a loose brick,
Who can not change the world,
To a better place for all.
 
Or maybe I should tell him,
How unfair I think he is,
He took a life away from me,
that I was supposed to carry.
 
But if I am to say or ask,
Just one thing at last,
That I think would be,
That I still love him.
 
For he is my god and creator,
And I will bend to his will,
But I will not keep quiet,
When unfair is done!

    This is a beautiful poem and thank you for sharing it here, however I do need a one question with this, you may put your one question or your one statement about God above this write and still leave the poem However the judgeing is only based on your one question or your one paragraph for God.

      Ah, I am sorry that I seemed unclear. My one statment to god is that I still love him.
      "But if I am to say or ask,
      Just one thing at last,
      That I think would be,
      That I still love him." <--- There is my statment.
      Thank you for this wonderfull contest, it was a joy to write for you.

    Have you never thought, that perhaps your little one only needed a body, nothing more, because they were so valiant in their spirit life with God before they came here? They did not need to be tried and tested, because they had already shown their worth. When you meet again, you'll find out why they were called home so soon. Hope this helps. Thank you so much for sharing your deep thoughts and words.

      I must admit I never thought about that no. I blamed god and everyone else for the loss and didn't want to think about any other options of why.
      I thank you for your kind words, and I do think you have a good point.

    A thought I am sure and question many of us think about . What would be the one thing you would question God about if you could. Mine I think is why do you let your children suffer so. A hard topic to write about but you have done so well. all the best Brian.

      Aw, thank you!

      Yes I did want to write that as well, but being afraid of flaming. I think I'll just stick to a more secure end to this poem.

        This is a very honest poem. If we are all just "bricks", imagine what God can do with us and his mortar?

        I miscarried, too. I was very sad. But I trusted God, even though I was sad. And angry. Perhaps these little souls just would not be able to survive outside of the womb.

        God does not cause suffering. Our human condition, our free will, and sin cause suffering.

        God promises us eternal life. With Him. A billion shining stars of joy only begins to describe it. I think once we're living that life with Him, we'll understand, we'll see why things were allowed to be as they were.
