Ph: Faith: "I Am" Poem by Brian Johnston

Yes, "I AM" is God's name in the Bible
Does that sound like a boy, girl, or thing?
"I AM" carries the scent of forever,
Unlike floral explosions in Spring.

"I AM"'s seasonless, can't be haiku then!
"I AM"'s boundless, beyond what we see.
Is God good, is God evil? YOUR ANSWER?
I just know that I love to be me.

Is God friend or your foe? Does the sun rise?
Does sun's warmth provide food for your life?
Do the feelings God's given you protect you?
Do you have friends? A husband? A wife?

Some complain! "My emotions touch darkness? ! "
Though that's true, OUR RESPONSE is our voice,
And we vote with God's feet when life's painful,
With this freedom, we share too God's choice!

We're all Children of Grace, God has spoken!
None can separate Love from the child
(For the love of a parent is timeless
And by blood, God's Grace cleanses the wild) .
