Poetry about God


God's Expressions
by , © 2012

God shows his expressions,
In many different ways.
The shinning stars at night,
And the sun with warming rays.

With every blade of green grass,
You see each and every day.
Demonstrates how God loves this world,
And wants his children to play.

And when the waves come high,
And force their way on through.
It's then that God's expressions,
Are showing something new.

And what about loud thunder,
And lightening shows, yikes!
Are God and his angels having fun,
Bowling up some strikes?

We really never know,
What God has planned for us.
But if something in this world makes us happy,
We know God has sent that bless.

So next time you see a bird,
Soaring in the sky.
Know God is also watching,
And is always close by.

God's Garden
by Author Unknown

Plant three rows of peas:
Peace of mind
Peace of heart
Peace of soul

Plant four rows of squash:
Squash gossip
Squash indifference
Squash grumbling
Squash selfishness

Plant four rows of lettuce:
Lettuce be faithful
Lettuce be kind
Lettuce be obedient
Lettuce really love one another.

You will have no garden without turnips:
Turnup for meetings
Turnip for service
Turnup to help one another

Water freely with patience and cultivate with love.
There is much fruit in your garden
Because you reap what you sow

To conclude our garden,
we must have thyme:
Thyme for God - Thyme for study
Thyme for prayer


"Trees are the earth's endless effort
to speak to the listening heaven."
R. Tagore

Unbelief
by Elizabeth York Case

There is no unbelief.
Whoever plants a seed beneath the sod,
And waits to see it push away the clod,
He trusts in God.

Whoever says, when clouds are in the sky,
"Be patient, heart; light breaketh by-and-by,"
Trusts the Most High

Whoever sees, 'neath winter's fields of snow,
The silent harvest of the future grow,
God's power must know.

Whoever lies down on his couch to sleep,
Content to lock each sense in slumber deep,
Knows God will keep.

Whoever says, "Tomorrow," "The Unknown,"
"The Future," trusts the Power alone
He dares disown.

The heart that looks on when the eyelids close,
And dares to live when life has only woes,
God's comfort knows

There is no unbelief;
And day by day, and night unconsciously,
The heart lives by that faith the lips deny.
God knoweth why!



"To us also, through every star,
through every blade of grass,
is not God made visible if
we will open our minds and our eyes."
Thomas Carlyle




A poem that shows how we see God all around us. For any non believers this poetry is one that may make them stop and think. Many times we hear people say show me, or prove it, the verses in this poem do just that!

The Handiwork of God
by Author Unknown

I believe in the brook as it wanders
From hillside into glade;
I believe in the breeze as it whispers
When evening's shadows fade.

I believe in the roar of the river
As it dashes from high cascade;
I believe in the cry of the tempest
'Mid the thunder's cannonade.

I believe in the light of shining stars;
I believe in the sun and the moon.
I believe in the flash of lightning;
I believe in the night bird's croon.

I believe in the faith of the flowers,
I believe in the rock and sod;
For in all of these appeareth clear
The handiwork of God.



So Many!
by Frank L. Stanton

So many stars in the infinite space -
So many worlds in the light of God's face.
So many storms ere the thunders shall cease -
So many paths to the portals of Peace.

So many years, so many tears -
Sighs and sorrows and pangs and prayers.
So many ships in the desolate night -
So many harbors, and only one Light.

So many creeds like the weeds in the sod -
So many temples, and only one God.

"Eyes raised toward Heaven are
always beautiful, whatever they be."
 Joseph Joubert
