Sometimes I reach the place in my life where I want to ask God why, <br />But then I am quickly but gently chided by The Holy Spirit inside. <br /> <br />For a grander plan is underway by God, who fills the earth and sky, <br />And I am but a tiny part of God's Eternal plan that won't be denied. <br /> <br />When the plans that I make and things that I do all seem to go awry, <br />Seeds of doubt seem to sprout as Satan again begins to whisper lies. <br /> <br />As Satan says God can not hear you now as He must of chose to hide, <br />The Holy Spirit gently tugs my heart and reminds me to simply abide. <br /> <br />For God's plans are to prosper me and to shelter me from any harm, <br />I simply need to trust His heart while I'm covered by His Mighty Arm. <br /> <br />For in the world Jesus had prophesied that I would have tribulation, <br />That is why He said to stay occupied while I wait for His Salvation. <br /> <br />For Satan's only purpose in my life is to cause me much undue alarm, <br />And at this point God's loving care causes Satan's demons to disarm. <br /> <br />So when the trials and tribulation in my life seem to be magnified, <br />I remember as Christ was crucified He wasn't defeated but Glorified. <br /> <br />Jesus is now in Eternal Glory and indwelt with His power up on high, <br />He exemplified His power and sent The Spirit, Who now dwells inside. <br /> <br />And my heart won't be troubled if I trust in God, who's all knowing, <br />Who's coming back, to take me home, for I know where I am going. <br /> <br />(Copyright © 05/2003)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-i-want-to-ask-god-why/
