[bodytext] => ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What If What if God was one of us? Human like you and me Come to show us how to live And to set us free Use your imagination now Open your heart and take a look At the kind of dedication The kind of love that took To become a baby in a manger Tiny fingers and toes softly curled The God of all creation Humbly entered our world Totally dependant upon man HE quietly takes His rest The great "I Am" Sleeps peacefully upon His mothers breast Imagine Him growing up Or a child with bruised knee Running home with tears falling Sobbing woefully " Mommy, mommy" Imagine how he felt As mommy makes the pain go away When she held Him and reassured Him With just the right things to say Imagine how He must have sighed When as a child He would expound The treasures in His word None other had found Imagine Him as a carpenter Creating things made of wood Beginning to pursue His purpose As yet no one understood Imagine him as a young man Beginning His lonesome journey toward the cross Seeking nothing but mans salvation Counting all else but loss Imagine Him before the people Revealing the mystery of God With no place to call home Save the earth on which He trod Imagine Him healing the sick Raising people from the dead Imagine the joy of such love Who would suffer in our stead Imagine the religious people Crying in indignation to God above Hearts so blinded by fear and greed They couldn't see Him humbly there in love Imagine the pain He must have felt When by those He loved He was rejected Still resolutely setting His heart to save us In order our hearts might be perfected Imagine the excruciating pain As He hung nailed to that tree Imagine the purity of a love Groaning" forgive, for they cannot see" Imagine His overwhelming joy As He returned to His throne above Imagine the heavenly celebration At the triumph of Love Russ [comments] => 7 [counter] => 186 [topic] => 11 [informant] => Lone_er [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
