I Saw God But Now What

Did you ever look up to the big bright blue sky, I did and I saw the blue eyes of God. I know He is watching over me, with blessings everywhere. Did you ever look into a face with a smile, I did and I saw God smiling back at me. Today it rained, I saw the tears of God coming down. We can see God everywhere we look, most do not look and some do not care.

"We can see God everywhere we look, most do not look and some do not care." So very right. Most people do not care to see God. With your innocent eyes, you looked at God and smiled and He smiled back at you. God is omnipresent and his presence is there everywhere. Well written, dear friend.

As they say: If you can't see Godliness in your friend's face -- then you're living in the dark!

On another spectrum to my way of thinking, but I do understand from where you are originating with that feeling and idea. One always hopes for a kind, generous and loving God - but to my way of thinking ... God will have His/Her angry darkness within Him/Her, when that time everyone is waiting for arrives. I have a love/hate relationship with God and if He/She is generous, kind and understanding, He/She will accept that for the time being. Let us hope I do not go to Hell for these thoughts. Excellent write Paula.

Dear Paula, Your words about seeing God in the sky and in smiles are beautiful. It poetically shows how nature and kindness can be windows to something divine. The rain as God's tears is an interesting image - perhaps a reflection of the world's suffering? A Lovely Read! - Blessings, Daniel

You 'saw' Him because you sought Him. I agree...kind of sad that some don't see God...for He's truly everywhere. Best wishes with the contest, hugs & blessings, Sara
