Where God Ain’t!… My Sunday Grateful!- May 12, 2013

            A little poem emailed to me today…

This will be “My Grateful” for today…

Grateful that God shows us in so many ways His wonder!

He was just a little boy,

On a week’s first day.

Wandering home from Bible School,

And dawdling on the way.

He scuffed his shoes into the grass;

He even found a caterpillar.

He found a fluffy milkweed pod,

And blew out all the “filler”.

A bird’s nest in a tree overhead,

So wisely placed up so high…

Was just another wonder,

That caught his eager eye.

A neighbor watched his zigzag course,

And hailed him from the lawn;

Asked him where he’d been that day

And what was going on.

“I’ve been to Bible School “,

He said and turned a piece of sod.

He picked up a wiggly worm replying,

“I’ve learned a lot about God“.

“M’m, very fine way”, the neighbor said,

“for a boy to spend his time”.

“If you’ll tell me where God is,

I’ll give you a brand new dime”.

Quick as a flash the answer came!

Nor were his accents faint.

“I’ll give you a dollar, Mister,

If you can tell me where God ain’t !”
