Our Omnipotent God

Lord, you turned the wheels of the galaxies,
You know what makes the planets spin.
You set the universe in motion,
And yet, you care for mortal man.

By your hands, you set the atoms dancing,
And keep the great currents circling in the sea.
You call all the stars by their names, O Lord,
And yet you care for me.

Lord, you have measured the waters,
In the hollow of your hand.
You make the clouds your chariot,
And yet, you care for mortal man.

You sit upon the circle of the Earth,
And stretch the heavens as a curtain we can see.
You walk on the wings of the wind, O Lord,
And yet, you care for me.

A wonderful testimonial about the omnipotence of God and the insignificance of man. Mrs Betty, I too ask the question,"Why me?" Congratulations on POTD.

Absolutely beautiful! With delight I am favoring your poem and leaving a 7 with you. A humbling yet tremendous devotional tribute to the power of our Father's all encompassing love. If I still taught Sunday school, I'd print this out for next week. Love it ... CayCay
