Yes, No Or Wait! Poem by Denis Martindale

Sometimes we pray and ask God things... we need His helping hand...
Sometimes we serve the King of Kings... we need to know what's planned...
Sometimes we ask, the answer's yes... we celebrate and smile...
Sometimes the task has no success... and so we wait a while...
Sometimes with answers on their way... but doubts begin to rise...
Sometimes God's wisdom brings delay... more than we realise...

Sometimes we nag and nag and nag... and moan and groan as well...
Sometimes the days can really drag... we've all got tales to tell...
But overall, with our lives done... we'll meet Christ face-to-face...
It's then we'll really love God's Son... and learn amazing grace...
Each sorrow borne that led to love... each burden served its role...
We learnt that God's grace was enough... that God was in control...

Sometimes I mourn for past events... the choices that proved wrong...
The pride that led to accidents... and asked, do I belong?
Am I a child of God at all? Yet God through Christ forgave...
Yes, God's love is my miracle... Forgiven all by faith!
I sing to God, How Great Thou Art! Because my God is great!
I pray, yet know inside my heart... God says... YES! NO! or WAIT!
