The Quest Poem by Elaine Oxamendi Vicet

The Quest

I remember struggling to wake
From a dream and saying
- I am a child of God.

I AM A CHILD OF GOD!

What does that mean?
That I have a DSS to God?

That he is there for me?
He never fails.

Though I fail him.

What kind of God is this?
Benevolent –
Always for giving – giving
God!

God the good God!

God – Jehovah the Provider
The God who permits all!

All the suffering
Pain
Misery
Suicide –
Rape
Murder
Theft
Fraud
Abuse
Chaos
Annihilation
Depression
Mistrust
Vanity
Shame
The list is endless.

A God who permits all –
Even free will.
Wee have a choice.

I choose God.

Does my life change?

My conscience is more awake.
-In fact I would day very alert.
I know when I sin and I repeat
And even refrain or accurately make a
Valiant effort to refrain.

Forgiveness and love
His message –
His lesson
This walk.

FATHER LORD –
Remember in all of this
There is me!
Frail, human being –
With live physical needs.

Who is my burden bearer?

FATHER LORD IS HE.

Is it enough?

RESOLVE!
