HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD ~ OUR CREATOR
He transcends our poor human intellect
Like a snow capped mountain above a desert
He scatters the profound theories of Wise Men
Like Autumn leaves blown by a Winter wind
He shatters the might of the World's Governments
As an earthquake levels a city !
GOD reaches down in tenderness to the
Poor creatures of the Earth ~ And draws them to Himself
Consider with me the greatness of my GOD
Rejoice in His judgements ~ embrace His eternal love
Stand fast in your faith ~ corageous in your commitment
For He is truely the One and Only Great GOD !
Blessed are those who put their trust in HIM ~ AMEN
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ LOVE to all BRIAN

- Comment from author about the poem: We live in perilous times ! Many Americans are fearful of the stark outcomes of a Trump Presidency ~ Many smaller nations are fearful of Putin's Russia ! The Earth's increasing population (10 billion by 2100) and diminishing resources and of course Global Warming and the consequences of global climate change. Every School Child in the USA knows this is a reality except MAD UNCLE DONALD who still thinks it's a CHINESE MYTH ! Thank GOD he is still Sovereign and the Controller and Sustainer of the UNIVERSE. We are fortunate in the UK we have a Christian Head of State (QUEEN ELIZABETH II) and a Christian Prime Minister (THERESA MAY) but we still need God's helsp (and a lot of prayer) to steer us through BREXIT # AMEN Love to all BRIAN. .

'Like a snow capped mountain above a desert
He scatters the profound theories of Wise Men'
Thinking that from the throne of God springs ' the river of life', this comparison between the 'theories of Wise Men ' and the snow scattered in the desert leads to the idea that any thought is sterile in the absence of love. The idea of 'frozen thought' is only suggested here - these unwritten epithets belong to your poem and make it be amazing.
Thanks MARI ~ pleased you liked it and with your poetic insight ~ perceived even more than I had penned. Thanks for being my MPS Friend ~ Yours BRIAN
