I’m no doctor
Or expert on diseases
Matter of fact
I’m no expert on anything
But of one thing I’m certain
God loves us all
I know some don’t believe in God
That he doesn’t really exist
They say, “Where’s the proof”?
My reply, I don’t need proof
My adoptive mother died from Alzheimer’s in 2008
My adoptive father at 95 has Alzheimer’s now
A life robbing disease it is
But by God’s design, I believe not
There are many things in this world
Many bad things
Of which I don’t know the origins
Bad things happen
I don’t know why, they just do
And when people don’t understand why
By nature, we want to blame a culprit
To ease our saddened hearts
Yes, Alzheimer’s will take my dad
But I refuse to throw God under the bus
I don’t believe God’s
In the business of taking life
He’s there to welcome life home
He’s there with love for all
When an Earthly body
Can do no more
God is there with open arms
With love for our loved ones
To keep them all safe
Until our own time comes
And we can join them there
God needs no defense
But even if I have to stand alone
I’ll have God at my side
I mean no offence to anyone
Whether or not you believe in God
You may believe as you wish
I’m not here to offend anyone
Even though our beliefs may differ
What we believe in
Is a choice we all make
And what I believe is
There’s someone or something
Bigger than us
Who loves us!
