He's God

In the fiery furnace, In the lions den, God was more than able To take care of His men. Through the waters of the Red Sea, And the parting of the Jordan, God’s mighty arm prevailed… Proving He was Israel’s Guardian. He was God in the fire Of the burning bush. And He was God in the fall of Jericho. He was God when Pharaoh said, “I’ll never let those children go.” He’s God when our world crumbles and falls, And we’re tempted to give up in despair. If we trust in Him, He’ll meet our needs. He is God, and He’ll always be there.

This is a good poem. I know God is for real. There is no one like him. Thank you for reminding me that my God is unique and can do anything. All I have to do is believe.

Thank you Betty for your kind comment. I don't know how anyone can question God's existence when we are reminded daily of His amazing creations in Nature alone.
