Seeing God’s Face

Shards of God’s love
planted, a seed
within the clay of our body
his breath breathed in
all of us connected
to eternity

If we could but see
seeing God’s face
in all the people we see
would the world be as it is
would despair be replaced
would hope spring eternal

Would the judgment come
as Christ describes it
if we saw the face of God
in each person we meet
would the world be different
if we could sense it
the shards of God’s love
shining in each beating heart
