I found God...inside of me...
I was looking for a man, but instead he found me
He whispered my name, i fell in shame and yet he did not shame me
He spoke of my pain
I cried
I blamed
He laid his hands on me
Told me to forgive thee
I tried but i could not muster the will to forgive my ownself
He grabbed me by the hand
We strolled through the land of my thoughts, my dreams, my experiences
And then he said
All of this is for you...
To be you...
To become you...
My child
My flower
I found God...inside of me
And not once did he disappoint me.

Dang, that just brought tears to my eyes.
Good job Ms. Lady.
I loved the vulnerability. Let Him use you. You blessed me with that one.

Miz, I loved this piece. It brought so much in the way of peace and contentment and these were both gifts I needed to unwrap today!
I was going to suggest that you cross post this over at Christoph's Potent Poetry blog because it would fit right in there...and I see he left a comment above...hmmmmm...
Oh wow, at first I thought I was readng G. Yes, that's a compliment. But your voice shone through quite brightly, and that is the bigger compliment.
Peace and Love,

Thank you all, your comments are so appreciated! much love to you!
@Sharon, in fact it was visiting Christoph's site that inspired this.
sweet. . . sometimes it takes us going through something really deep to realize that GOD never will disappoint us! he is not man, not made out of flesh and so we need to everyday know that he is the one that we must turn to; trust him and he will make all of our pain go away!
great poem!
