God

God

A Poem by Coyote Poetry
"

God is in our heart. In what we say and do. God is not found in the church. It is how we look at life and how we treat our brothers and sisters.

"
                            

               God

What is God? God is what we hold dear in our heart.
Religion is the base for the belief in God. Not the foundation.

God is the birth of a new child. Their new life show us. Life is never-ending
God is the coming of a new day.
The hope and trust we can do well and be caring and kind  to the people we are near.




God is the kind words we speak to the people we love.
Teacher of love protect us and care for us.
One day we must repay with a open and a concern heart.

God is in our heart. In what we say and do. God is not found in the church. It is how we
look at life and how we treat our brother and sister.








God is in the eyes of the children.
Every child needing the kindness of safety and protection of love.
God is the person who send a few dollars to the people in need.
God don't see race, color of skin and where you are born.

We must find God in our heart.
Native American believe.

The ancient one must teach the young child.
Kindness and love is the way.
We must stand together and thank the God of life and death.
For the new day and new opportunities.
 
God is everywhere. In the words we speak.
In every act we perform.

Look at the great sea. The open sky.
The grand mountains.  Look at the eyes of the children.




I have never met God in person.
I have touched his gifts of beauty.
I have swam in his oceans. Free-climbed his mountains.
Held a new born baby.

I have touched God and I have learn it is time for us to forget  race, color of skin and learn.
One people on one earth. We must get along.
One child lost to starvation, sickness or war.
Should break all people hearts.

I enjoyed this very much, I feel I followed the message completely and agree, I however found "foundation" and "base" to be similar choices in wording of the second line. I may be incorrect in my understanding of the wording, but I feel that to be a very powerful line that has drawn confusion and withdrawal to those looking to find understanding of God for centuries saying, "If he's not in church, where do I find him? And if I find him through the world, is that Paganism?"
Aside from my nit-picking I feel very thankful to have read your great poem.

This is an interesting piece. I have such a bizarre relationship with God - I was brought up very observant, and as life took its toll on me, changed my views about God. It has left me a bit confused and bewildered, but.... I like how you have done this piece, and want to reread it for more metapoetics.

Thank you Rossen for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.
the most beautiful thing what you wrote is the ultimate truth. people should understand that praying or practicing god without having any humanity is not getting them anywhere. your piece talks the truth and i hope everyone reads it for it has the power to change :) PS. i love those pics

Yes I agree whole hardheartedly!
This is a beautiful writing as are the pictures I enjoyed seeing them
I agree with everything you have said 100% God does not live in a building he is everywhere
We have read of his son Jesus how he never looked down upon anyone
Fed the poor healed the sick god is love God is hope God' is faith
He is the mighty physcian and the great counselor when he lives within our hearts we are to act as he would and do the things he would
God does not live in a building he is everywhere the Bible says where two or more are gathered in my name I am there also these are just my opinions and how I try to live
True words of wisdom Thank you

I believed that God is Life, and God is Love. Both coincide together to find the world not so bad a place to be. The world is full of harsh evironment, cultural and natural events. I think in life & love are teaching us how to be more human, to learn the wonders that we need to protect. It's not about them, or our neightbors, its about us on how we make our lives be better and more understanding than the past. change must start first on how we handle our life, openning up to the vast understand of what's these world could offer that we might lose if we are not taking responsibility of our actions, mistakes must not be in full circle.

well penned my friend.

Too many people put too much stock in religion for religion's sake. The church is not the end all be all, your heart and your mind are where you truly find God and faith. More people need to share your views.
