Paul,
Great poem and great message.
A line from the Hymn "Come Labor On" comes to mind: "no arm so weak, but may fo service here; by feeblest agents, may our God fulfill His righteous will."
Nice work!

Carolyn F,
Very good poem. I appreciate what you have expressed.
There is a very good national/ international grief support group with many meeting locations.
It is usually a 12 week program with an excellent workbook and great videos as part of the program.
It is called GriefShare and you can find it online.
The thing that many people do not realize is that a loss or losses are really crisis situations and every loss must be grieved separately.
Another thing, grieving is hard work.
I'm so sorry for your loss I also lost my only son with Leukemia on December 22, 2001. The loss of any child is so heartbreaking I would have never thought I was never going to lose him. He was diagnosed at the age of 18 and he passed away three years later so I share your loss they will always be in our prayers and memories forever, God bless you and take care.
Lenora,
I totally agree with your description above the poem that "we do not have to live in fear and anxiety despite what is going on in the world."
Great poem!

I loved to read your poem acknowledging God's awesomeness.
It is amazing that when we learn more about who He is, we also learn about who we are in Him.
That is also awesome, and more powerful and wonderful than I think many people realize!
