Poem Commentary

Whenever I feel down and discouraged... I remember these words.  I wrote this about 15 years ago and it has always helped me through the hard times.

God's Answer

God's Answer


I wept alone one evening
while kneeling by my bed
My life was disappointing
and problems filled my head

My prayers went up to Jesus
I asked the question "Why"
He listened so intently
and this way his reply

My child you are discouraged
that's not the way to be
your sins have been forgiven
and I have set you free

No more does death enslave you
or darkness fill your soul
and Satan cannot rule you
You're under my control

I went to bed that evening
knowing God is with me
his son died for my wrongdoing
My soul completely free

I dreamed of a life of delight
and days that were full of glee
I awakened in the morning light
Knowing Jesus walks with me

Lovely rhyme scheme. Great story. Easy to follow and easy to read. I appreciate you sharing your faith.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
