How do 'you' feel?

How do you feel Lord?
When one of you children,
falls to the depths
of sickness disease.

How do you feel Lord?
When cancer destroys,
One of your dear ones,
Lord how do you feel?

Is it with mixed emotions
you take them to heaven
knowing the heartache,
others have as they go?

Or is it celebration,
when they bow before Jesus?
How do you feel Lord?
When we let them go?

I remember deciding that when we mourn he mourns,
when we cry he too cries,
and his presence brings a comforting peace along
with the empathy and sympathy he brings. - Larry

Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. ~Psalm 31:24 KJV

How do 'you' feel?

I feel...

I feel...
... alone at times, and that is okay.
... I am able to experience solitude.
... at age 12, 16, 19 the kids are well adjusted.
... at peace.
... sunrises and sunsets are important.
... thinking poetically every day has made a difference in my life.
... writing in a journal is good for me.
... life experience is a valuable gift to offer a friend.
... things are working out as they should.
... held in a permanent climate of divine kindness.
... it is time to get back to playing music.
... a walk in the woods is elemental.
... good about you!

why is it someone gets hurt

why is it someone gets hurt
why can't we love without doing that to each other
what does time apart mean
why is it someone gets hurt

how can time help
who gives answers when all seems lost

what about the depth of sharing
why is it someone gets hurt

why don't we see our own chains
what limits us, our personal barriers to love
why do people touch each other so deeply
why is it someone gets hurt
