Divine Dice

Is it really so hard to sneak a look behind 
the hand that holds God's cards?
Quite right, Einstein, 
God does not play the roll of dice. 
If that were so, we should rightly say 
his gamble of our lives 
was not so very nice.
I may not see his every move, 
or know what's held for me this day 
but for those He holds in love, 
and where they understand His way, 
His hand is cast for certain good - 
He hears each word from those who pray.

I really enjoyed this poem. It is interesting to think about that roll of the dice. I believe God has a good plan for us and there is no chance. We may not understand but we can trust that it will be for our good. Beautiful poem!
