A Little Child Shall Lead
by lynn gipson I lost my best friend and comrade today, A man with a gun took him away. My daughter said to me out of the blue Daddy, remember, "Jesus loves you." I see so much injustice in this bad world. What kind of future comes for my little girl? I get so down wondering what she will do, And comes a small voice saying "Jesus love you." Shining eyes coming straight from God. I am her father, isn't this odd? I should teach her the way to the truth, Instead she tells me "Jesus love you. I go to my church looking for answers. I'm a policeman, I often take chances. It could have me whose life is now through, Then my five year old says "Jesus love you." I fall to my knees to God in thanksgiving I ask Him why I should be the one living. Why was I spared with the wrong I do? Then come those words "Jesus love you." Taking her hand up to the altar, I pray to Jesus, my voice does not falter. You sent forth this child to lead me to you. Thank you Dear Jesus, I love you too. I am a 61 year cancer survivor just recently become a writer. I write short stories, articles and poems of Christian or Spritual nature. Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
