Love, Innocence, Beauty And Life 4.29.2008 Poem by Margaret Alice

Richard Wurmbrand wrote – “After years
of brain-washing in atheist prisons where
phrases ‘There is no God’, ‘God is Dead’
were broadcast repetitively, I came up
with a fantasy that saved me from
losing my faith and kept me strong:

The story of God is so beautiful that even if it
did not exist, I would have invented it myself,
were it proven that men had dreamt up the
idea of an Almighty God, I would have left
reality to live in my dream, without needing
any proof of its being true.”

This anecdote from Wurmbrand’s life has
inspired me with courage also to cling to
my dreams, trusting that hope will be
enough, that no proof will ever be
required to love innocence,
beauty and life…
