Where is God?

Poem loosely based on 1 Kings 19:11-12 written 3/18/14



Where are you?

In the wind?
Whirling round and round
Filling ears with the lonely sound

In the earthquake?
Dizzying destruction and pain
Bringing nothing to gain

In the fire?
With it's dancing, burning flames
Not to be toyed with, not for games 

Wait! The quiet whisper
That I hear
Softly in my ear

Reassurance
When I fall to pieces
And the day ceases

Great love
The arms holding me
Gently, softly

The presence 
That is always there
Any place, anywhere

Is that you?
