September 11th Saints and Sinners Alike

Standard

One thing we debate

Is the existence of fate.

.

If life is great, we’ll be great!

If life is bad, hmmm, do we blame it on fate?

.

Maybe we don’t realize

How God sees it in His Eyes.

The brokenness of the world to surmise.

Yet if we just express more LOVE, we show we believe that He, Jesus, rose above the death lies. 

.

There has been trouble since Adam and Eve,

And of Cain and Abel, oh how God grieved.

.

It’s a strange system of life and death, 

Saints and Sinners alike taking their last breath. 

.

Then this September 11th anniversary comes about,

Grief is confusing and frustrating, no doubt. 

.

How do we reconcile death from life,

How do we soldier on, in all the strife?

.

Maybe knowing the pain, 

We should INSTEAD focus on expressing life’s gain.

.

For death, earthly early death takes away our breath,

But everlasting life is LOVE deeper than surface death. 

.

LOVE is the present as it is in the past.

LOVE is the ONLY earthly thing that will last.

.

So let us let our loved ones pass,

And witness especially that we know there must be a path

.

To live with the light of eternal flame,

Bigger wider, deeper than any Olympic game. 

.

We will see God’s Hand,

Invitation to His Land.

And oh our forever life will be oh so grand.

.

Love IS the Plan.

.

September 11th, any day, every day, let us shine the light of love beyond the pain.

Remember that tough phrase: “our loss is God’s gain”,

Well at least appreciate that even the shortest or longest time here on earth is but a fraction of life’s melody refrain. 

.

Sing HOPE and LOVE over pain.

Sing sorrow, but sing all the same.

God bless everyone who again, today, feels the September 11th pain.

.

Amen
