Bigger Picture

Life is full of twists and turns
That sometimes don't make sense.
The world just makes another round
In spite of our defense
Of things we do
That in the end are meaningless
To most.

That's why we need to think about our life
In the context of something bigger
Than just what we see here on this earth
That we can't figure
Because we are not
Just a useless lifeform passing through
The Universe;

We are special -- made in the image of God --
Who is over all and in all and who
Is Bigger than anything we can imagine
And whose Word is ALWAYS true
Because He cares
About what happens to us and all those things
That occur

And when we don't understand why things are
The way they are and why they happen
To some and not to others
We must know that then
Is when He is working
In our life for
Our good.
