Is GOD really there?



With so many hungry people around me...
Is GOD really there?
But, I was fed well.

With so many people homeless...
Is GOD really there?
But, I had a beautiful place called home.

With so many people who are lonely...
Is GOD really there?
But, I had the best of people as friends.

With so many addicts around me...
Is GOD really there?
But, I had received redemption.

With so many orphans around me...
Is GOD really there?
But, I had both mom and dad.

With so many people carrying heavy loads...
Is GOD really there?
But, my cross was light.

With so many unemployed and depressed youths around me...
Is GOD really there?
But, I had a satisfying job.

With many struggling in the storm of financial crisis...
Is GOD really there?
But, I had all my financial needs taken care of.

With so many people looking for good health…
Is GOD really there?
But, I was healthy.

With so many not knowing GOD...
Is GOD really there?
But, I have a responsibility to fulfill!

Amen!

We will smile again...together!


The times we walked, the times we laughed,
The times now make me sad; they give me grief.

The times you cared, the times you loved,
Repaid? No I say, may be I never knew the little time you had.

You etched my heart with joy, you filled love,
As you leave, it grieves with pain.

I realized ever curve on my face in your presence,
Now I realized ever tear that runs down my face.

The tuff times you faced; the troubles you hid,
The times you called, but I never heard.

The times you made me smile; you made me laugh,
I search for you brother; I search for you friend.

You will be missed, every single day,
You will be missed, with every heart beat I take.

May be the time hasn't come, but it will come,
With JESUS we will be reunited and we will smile again...together!

In memory of my dearest, best, and most loved cousin brother Rohan Thomas Valder.
