God Touched Me

Here I am, seating on my throne,
                                 finally, where I want to be!  
                             I knew as a child, that God loves all
                                an our savior had plans for me.  

                                        I was eight or nine
                                    when God touched me,
                                  and I started seeing clearly.  
                              God created this world we live in, 
                                   and he set his people free!!!

                            The flowers, the trees, the animals, 
                                     and all human beings,
                           were regarded highest to our father,  
                                      in his land of the free.

                           I remembered the story "Noah's Ark" 
                                 and it all made sense to me.   
                                  The Ten Commandments, 
                                     God's written words,
                                 the laws by which to lead.

                         My heart filled, with the sudden urge, 
                                    to help those in need, 
                           to love all life, praise Jesus name,
                            and keep God forever within me.
                                       God touched me!!!

I grew up in church and God touched me too. God uses many things in life and is continuing to reach out and touch me in my adult life.

I want you to know that God Touched me too....it was a physical touch, I didn't know what to do....it was during a time where I questioned His Truth....so He Toucked my heart....my current Life is the proof....
