Because He Said

Folder: 
Religion

Because He said

the birds soar in flight

and the moon shines at night

Because He said

the trees stand strong and tall

and water from the clouds do fall

Because He said

water fill the trenches of the earth

and all living things give birth

Because He said

the deserts are filled with sand

and seasons change without the aid of man

Because He said

thunder bangs through the sky

and lightening is a sight for the eye

Because He said

no snowflake is the same

and we sing praises to His name

Because He said

His son died for our sins

so there is no battle that we can't win

"Amen" - now on a more serious note...
This is inspirational - Your gift
as a "word" artist is seen in your ability
to paint the moment in the color they deserve.
This poem is reverential and is in stark contrast
to "Same Ol'Sunday Sermon" which you painted
with light humor. "Because he Said" is Paint
in all the regal colors as the glory of our Lord
deserves.
Keep Preaching - Keep the faith.
