A Path Unknown

Contributed by reflections on Friday, 12th August 2005 @ 09:13:44 PM in AEST
Topic: StoryPoetry









I am, some say, a fetus
not an unborn human being,
yet those who have viewed sonograms
say believing is in the seeing.

A million arms would welcome me
on any given day;
tho, someone in dire distress
might turn her heart away.

No judgment should the world pass
on one so sad and lost,
whose torment is a part of her
regardless of the cost.

While Im within my mothers womb
God prepares a path for me;
Ill be an angel, or a robust child
He alone knows which Ill be.

No matter the conclusions made
that decide my future role,
I am content within Gods hands-
He holds secure my soul.

So, if I fall before Im due
please, do not cry for me.
Ill be safely with Almighty God!
HIS ARMS my destiny!







John F. Templin

This is beautifully written, John. I can understand in rare cases the necessity. Yet I believe those that are not that case are pre-mediated murder. The second an egg is fertilized there is a spark of life which becomes a heart. If God had wanted that fetus in heaven he would have aborted it himself. it is not meant for the hand of man to perform. My personal view. Thank you. You write beautifully.

Uniqueley beautiful lines that hold the assurance and certitude that nothing is ever lost, and the final destiny of everything that is , is in God's hands - - so secure, so safe.!

No atom, electron, neutron gets lost, All creation groans in birth pangs. St. Paul tells us this too.
How wonderful it is that you are sharing this profound insight and assurance with us.

Let it be a great consolation for those that m although they have love- nevertheless, feel the responsibility is beyond their strength.- and give them the assurance they deserve,- that better hands,- mightier hands infinitely more loving and caring hands than theirs take care of what they can not..
Absolutely beautiful write.

Blessings
Elizabeth
