Conversation With God

Religious work from C.E. Manor

I sate looking in the morning sky

And thought to myself, "Why Lord, why?

Why are people so full of hate?"

And a cloud appeared, "You're losing your faith

Faith in Me, and all I create

I hope you wise up before it's too late

I bless some with love and others with wealth

And they only time I hear prayer is when you need help

When everything is smooth and going by fine

I am the last to cross your mind

No prayer in school; no prayer at home

And you wonder why things are going wrong

I get jealous as you would be

If you hold anything higher than Me

I an put snow in the desert or take mountains away

You can come to Me any time of the day

If thunder shakes your home during the midnight hour

That is Me showing some of my power

A generous God like Me and you're still debating

As I watch my children give in to Satan

If you have no needs and not feeling blue

We can just talk because I have feelings too

Many say that I don't exist

So how do you explain a pretty day like this?

I protect you in your weakest state

When you're sleeping, ill, and even awake

Have faith in Me and it will show

Your cup of blessings will overflow

Get your life straight because it is time

For the Lord God to use your mind

And your tongue to teach the world

Bring back all of my boys and girls

Who are living carefree; whose lives are lost

I was the one staked to the cross

I gave my life so you can live

I've given to you now you must give

Prepare yourself to join God's army

Satan can touch you, but he can't harm Me

For I am the beginning and the End

But throughout it all-I am your Friend."

Author's Note

I wrote this poem in 2001, and it is still my favorite piece. This was the creation that I feel God blessed to me to show me what my future was...writing. I hope you reading this as much as I do. God bless.
