What I Believe
We prayed he would survive.
He would not survive.
And yet he is surviving.
How can we the living go on living
knowing our prayers were waiting in line to be processed?
Today Denver is buried but the snow shines like ten thousand crushed diamonds.
All is not lost.
I believe ten good things in the world will happen today
because of who he was and what he did or said or stood for.
What I mean is he said these things that inspired others to be better
people and their children to be better people and
on and on.
And that matters so much.
Thou shalt not question Him
Though shalt not question our anger
which must be squelched
by the love of angels. (his love).
He is gone but he is not
missing or separate from us.
He was a gift from God and a gift for God.
Passed on but not gone.
Our view of him will not be tainted by our view of Him.
Our view of him will not be tainted by his last days.
