(And GOD Said)

I said, "GOD, I hurt"

GOD said, " I know."

"That is why I gave you tears."

I said, "GOD. I am so depressed."

GOD said, "That is why I gave you sunshine."

I said, "GOD, life is so hard."

GOD said, "That is why I gave you loved ones."

I said, " GOD, my loved one died."

GOD said, "So did mine."

I said, "It is such a loss."

GOD said, "I saw mine nailed to the cross."

I said, "But your love one lives."

GOD said, "So does yours."

I said, "GOD, where are they now?"

GOD said, "Mine is on my right,

yours is in the light."

I said, "GOD, it hurts."

GOD said, "I know!"
