God's Hand

Facebook post this morning:

This poem, "God's Hand", was written jointly, via an email conversations, byPastor Ruth Foss and me during the course of the day on Friday December 3, 2004, ten years ago today.

It was written by each of us writing two lines to continue what the other had written. We didn't edit it and we read it at our wedding two weeks later on December 17, 2004 and again in our church wedding on 4/23/05.

Love you Honey...

God's Hand 

The gentle push
the warm support

The gentle nudge
Of the One who knows what's best

Charting a course
with history, coincidence, and promise

Leading two to become one
as He planned since life begun

Formed of dust, a rib
and His breath of life

One body again
As He intended

Bound together for an eternity
loving, laughing, sharing

Knowing this time, it is meant to be
As part of His Plan

Woven together with love and caring
held together for ever more by God's majestic hand.

From day to day and year to year
they will hold each other dear
