We cannot change the past
We created our own pleasure and pain
What doth it profit a man
If he gain the whole world - lose his soul
This to me was the most mesningful verse it hit home for me . I SO ENJOYED THIS POEM

This one I consider the best one you've done. Not only is it well done but it gives such sound advice and is so true and accurate in describing our willingness to hang onto the past and former mistakes.

Comment from Eleanor Buron
Faith and praying for the grace to cope with our problems helps believers through the hardships in life. And knowing others in the world care and find it in their hearts to pray for others adds meaning and hope to our lives. This poem has biblical truths that bear repeating - "Let go and let God" is a favorite of mine. Those words to be accepted and practiced takes trust. Lots of trust. Sometimes, as we know, trust takes time to build and grow strong. To do that means a relationship must exist. I believe you have a strong relationship with the Lord and by sharing your feelings through your poetry you help others to grow in faith and trust.

Comment from Changeisgood
Aussie, So true and what a smooth way of writing it, incorporating scripture. Favorite line: "If you have not suffered/You have not lived." Ha! That strikes bells.
And time is like that. All we "have" or can see is the present. What the poem suggests is not to lose the present with pining for the past or delaying for the future. A fine point and a fine poem. Franny

Franny, Spot on. Thanks so much for your review. We are not here for ourselves - let go and let God. Blessings, K.
Comment from adewpearl
Let go and let God - that is one of the most difficult things for me on my spiritual journey - it sure does not come naturally.
I like the near rhyme of act/back in your final stanza and the black dog off your back line.
This is quite thought-provoking and inspirational, my friend :-) Brooke

Except we become as little children we shall not enter the Kingdom - childlike faith is what we need to let go and let God. Thank you dear friend. Love, K.
Comment from Carolyn Hilliard
Some great suggestions in this poem. It started off with your own words; I wish it had stayed individualized, but the suggestions are noteworthy.

I have always loved your writing Aussie...but I admire your spirit even more ( if thats possible) Reading your poem reminds me of the awesome future we all have waiting for us when God's kingdom government takes complete control over earth's affairs! Revelation 21:3,4 is so comforting! Dan.2:44 tells us that Gods kingdom will do away with all earthly governments which fail humankind so miserably. Thank you for sharing this wonderful poem!

Aussie you have an ability to write things that strike so close to home with me( and probably most others) to the point that I sometimes feel like doing something a 71 year old man shouldn't do i.e.:cry. Maybe I'll just give God another chance.

Hello Poppa, Never give up. I am 66 (not far behind you in years.) Without my faith I would be lost - Let go and let God darling boy. Love, K.
