I See God Everywhere in Everything
I look at my hands,
I see the roots of trees,
I look out at the stars,
I see the wonder
That are my eyes,
I look at the grass
And the tree branches
I see the hair upon my head,
The Glory of God is everywhere
In everything stamped with
His image,
I overhear the bitterness
Of those who can’t believe,
Who are mourning love ones,
Those who see the atrocities of war,
Not understanding that death has its purpose
For God, as an agent of renewal,
The forces of destruction, chaos live
Live side by side with the opposite,
Forces of creation, love,
What needs to take place
Is the faith and belief
To let go and not hold on
To our grief but give it up
To a higher power...
I see the forgiveness
Of the mother who lost
Her son to someone
Who took him for her
I see Christ in her
