Dear God

Dear God

A Poem by Gaurav
"

A prayer

"
Dear God,
There never was a universe
in truth or in illusion,
when it was all You
why we remained aloof?
Grief-stricken hearts of children
in loss of affection, Dear God
one of your traits die
when they cry in pain.
I saw birds falling on ground
and petals' color merging in dust,
when a man stood up against Bad
i saw people taking his blood out,
The creation of You is You
and they kill us
what then die is You,
don't mourn to see this all
do something
do something!!!

I've come to realize that God never stops bad things from happening, due to the free will He gave us, and thus will even let us use to do harm with. However He will help heal any who have been hurt. Often times we blame him for things that happen to us or other people, but we forget that we live in a world that is mortal, and inevitably will face situations that have many flaws and imperfections.

I also have found that we as humans often ask for help without realizing what we are asking for. We ask a God who knows all, to help us and He does, but we have a set way that we believe we should be helped, and a certain time frame that we believe we should be helped in. This is also not the case. God knows when to move in, when to remain still. We expect Him to help us the way we think he should but usually He sees the bigger picture. So we tend to get upset when He doesn't seem to be helping us, however usually He is, just simply not the way we think.

Thankyou so much for your kind words. Appreciate it.
Wow, impressive, immersive.
This actually makes quite a lot of sense if you think about it. You've made your point well. Only thing is that I'm not a believer really, excuse me for that, but I still agree with you.
One thing I wanted to mention, though: 'i saw people taking his blood out': don't forget the capital letter :)
Anyways, good work!

welcome !!
Is there anything that we can really say we understand? Why is life destroyed with such impunity? Does it mean nothing? Why is no action being taken to prevent it?
