Tears In Heaven

Will there be tears in heaven

When I search for you and you're not there?

The blood of Jesus ran down the cross

But you say you don't care

You don't believe in someone who allows suffering here on earth

Yet, He endured much more pain, He died for us

Comprehending such love is impossible, until you invite Him into your heart

Stepping past where your eyes can't see, by faith is where you must start

Must my heart be forever broken and in heaven teardrops forever shed?

Because your heart was once broken and can't forgive and believe instead

Acceptance and acknowledgement is all that He requires. There are so many miracles that certainly inspire. To not believe is denying the realities of life. To think that there is nothing there is just asking for strife. Prayers and Peace. :)

Congratulations Donna, What you say in your poem is so true. Christ died on the cross to show his love for us, for all the sins we had committed, and to save our souls from the devil. Although there are those that cannot see or don't wan't to see that Christ loves all even when we sin People go through life never knowing what faith is and if they did their lives would be much better Well done Pam xx
