~AND GOD SAID~  

I said,  

"God, I hurt." 

And God said, 

"I know."

I said,  

"God, I cry a lot." 

And God said, 

"That is why I gave you tears"

I said,  

"God, I am so depressed." 

And God said, 

"That is why I gave you sunshine."

I said, 

"God, life is so hard." 

And God said, 

"That is why I gave you loved ones."

I said, 

"God, my loved one died." 

And God said, 

"So did mine."

I said, 

"God, it is such a loss." 

And God said, 

"I saw my Son nailed to the cross."

I said, 

"God, but your loved one lives." 

And God said, 

"So does yours."

I said, 

"God, where are they now." 

And God said, 

"Mine is on my right and yours is in the Light."

I said, 

"God it hurts." 

And God said, 

"I know."
