what goes up

---- IMAGE REMOVED because photobucket.com no longer allows embedded images ----

They say what goes up
must come down
be it whatever
that may be

Only this planet
we know as earth
has that
capacity

So if its true
then when i pray
what goes up
must come down

So when a prayer
is S.O.S
or ever quiet
whispering

Or a petition
fervent and bold
answers will return
as does the rain

Just see the prayers
of faith arise
reaching the heart
of God

Like the dew ascending
up on the mountain side
so our thoughts
ascend on high

Never thought of it like that When seems like God not listening just remember that in such suttle ways he has his own way of answering prayers so just think about that what goes up must come down. when you feel like all is lost. Powerful Serpico. Thanks for that.

it's an interesting thought, serpico. but, and you know i have to be devil 's advocate and say: isn't god supposed to be all around us? so throwing prayers up...that's alot of wasted energy. though lightning bolts do come from the sky...that's a definite no answer, correct? don't mind me! laugh it's a fine write, as usual. thanks for sharing your talent.

thanks kickit..appreciate the response.its not always easy to grasp that he hears our prayers..but the good book says he does..and i think of that part in matthew where it says he has great value on the sparrow..and says for us there is much more...as a christian i believe that to be so..thank you for your thought..thumbs up

well that is true gashly..but note also that ones parents can be all around us day by day..yet we still when younger asked things of them..
or you could say its a lot like keeping in touch with a family member by post..or phone...
we make contact through the distance..
its ok gashly i dont mind your words at all..you are merely asking..nothing wrong with that..and you always compliment the work...so thank you ..wave
