God Loves Us – Poem by Edwina Gately

July 26, 2014 By Jean Wise

#healthyspirituality

God love us when we cannot;

God holds us when we will not;

God sees us when wee dare not;

God knows us when we do not.

 

But, oh, that we might come

To love and hold ourselves,

To see and know ourselves,

That we might then glimpse God

 

Edwina Gately
