Eternal Optimist

Man says, “Impossible.”
God says, “Wait and see.”

Man sees a monstrous trial.
God sees victory.

Man says, “Lord, I quit.”
God says, “Son, I can’t.”

Man sees barren hearts.
God says, “Love I’ll plant.”

God is the Eternal Optimist.
New hope shall He bring
Even through our muted tune
A new song shall we sing.

UNQUENCHABLE LOVE

“Many waters cannot quench love. Neither can the floods drown it.”

Song of Solomon 8:7

Your love is a fire of passion
that can never be extinguished.

Not all the cold hearts in the world
could freeze such a love!

Not all the deadness in mankind
could kill such a life!

Not all the darkness in the universe
could conquer such a light.

You warm cold hearts.
You raise the dead.
You pierce the darkness.

Nothing You are -
nothing You do
nothing You give

can be overcome.
