Hi. This is my third page. The reason why I made this page is that the page with my "short" stories on it was getting a little long. Sorry about that, whoever read it. Anyway, here's my poems.
"Possibilities"
Every cloud can hide a star
Every seed can grow a tree
Every grain of sand in an oyster can become a pearl
Every thought could change the world
"Broken Glass"
Broken glass on the street
Broken heart
Stained glass in a church
Something beautiful
"An Angry God?"
God, angry?
Maybe
All I know is that I've done stupid things that probably made God shake His head at my foolishness
BUT--
I also know that Jesus
Lived the perfect life I couldn't
Took my punishment for me
And rose from the dead to prove He is God
If God cries
I think His tears of rage are mixed with tears of mercy
Forever forgiveness
Infinate compassion
Eternal life in Heaven
And a new start
If only we would ask Him
Written after reading "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Johnathan Edwards
(In case you're wondering, this guy's sermon was a real hellfire-and-brimestone sermon. Personally, I believe in a loving God.)
"Jesus's Hands"
Hands that made the universe from nothing
Hands that separated light from darkness
Hands that flung the stars
out into the black sky
Hands that pushed up the mountains
And carved the riverbeds
Hands that made us
Were pierced for us
Up on a splintered Roman cross
His hands didn't hit back, instead they were
Willingly kept still to receive our punishment
In full measure, so we can be free
And after He is resurrected, His hands were
Hands that blessed the disciples
Before He went up to Heaven
Even now, thousands of years later,
His hands are open
Welcoming all who believe
Guiding, comforting, helping
His hands are open
All we have to do is open ours
(I do belive in Creation and in Jesus, but I'm not narrow-minded. I respect other people's opinions. With this page and my other two pages, I'm just stating the beliefs that have helped and comforted me in the past.)
Thank you for visiting my pages at Angelfire. Please come back and visit again!
