One Grain of Sand To Make My Case

The human part of us can be weak.
I am no different than anyone else.
I pray to God to make me stronger.

 

 

Thank You, my Lord, for listening,
As I spilled my heart and my soul;
In a feeble, human attempt,
At trying to make my faith whole.

Being a lawyer's not easy,
We're taught to trust only in facts;
Knowing there's a shadow of doubt,
To acquit if the story lacks.

And one needs to admit, my Lord,
In 2,000 years that have passed;
Mankind has taken Your story,
Says no! Proof has not ammassed.

I am ashamed of myself,
With the questions I asked of You;
Yes, I'm missing one grain of sand,
Still, I trust in all that You do.

As I sit here and cry aloud,
Forgive me, Lord, for that doubt;
I simply want nothing more than,
To trust in You fully and to shout...

"I have the evidence that we need,
One-hundred percent irrefutable;
Jesus Christ is The Lord, our God,
There is no room for rebuttal."

Still, Dear Lord, I need ask of You,
Grant me one tiny grain of sand;
To complete this ancient puzzle,
Proof You exist, for every man.

In closing, I would like to say,
Thanks, Lord, for our talk last night;
I cast the devil from my soul,
Trusting You'll make all things right.

While the jury deliberates,
I'll still search for one grain of sand;
So they'll be no shadow of doubt,
That God, in fact, walked among man.

Grant me one tiny grain of sand;

Proof You exist, for every man.

Indeed, my friend; this is an earnest plea; and the whole offering is thought-provoking and prayerful. Thank you, Paul. Love and peace,

We have been given a beach to walk on and it is we who leave our footprints on the sand of life. You have rested your case and the jury is now left to ponder your fate. Belief in God's word is the only grain of sand you will ever need or want.

Well written piece from one man to the God he so fiercely believes so strongly about. Maybe if everyone thought like Paul the world wopuld be a kinder and safer place to live.

Best, Gerry
