Touched by God

Shirley A Mandel
I just want to thank you for your prayers. I've been pouring out my heart to Him myself tonight, and He gave me a little poem to share.

I'm touched by God,
and He is bigger than all my problems.

He is bigger than depression
and diabetes.

He is bigger than stigma
and job discrimination.

He is bigger than poverty
and snobbery'

He is bigger than child abuse
and adult abuse.

God is big,
real big.

Oh how awful and sweet
it is to be touched by God.

    I would not think of God's touch to be awful unless I disobeyed his guide lines to be pure and holy. I dare not say I am holy. LOL. Shirley, Iike the part that God is big, real big. Good prospective. Love you!

    My God, Our God is an awesome He reigns from Haven and earth. He is 'magnificent'. Earth has not the words that can describe Him. Beautiful poem Shirley yet until we get to Heaven we will still not understand His magnificence.

    My God is so Huge that He stands at all four corners of the entire universe and still concerns Himself with every strand of hair upon my head. Imagine it? Rest in it! cheers :)
