The Man Who Walked On Water Poem by Colin Ian Jeffery

The Man Who Walked On Water

Rating: 5.0


Tomorrow will be better than today
My father said to me, when I went to him
After hurting myself, crying with childhood tears
My hurt kissed away with hugs to make me safe.
Darkness always gives way to the light
Banishing terrors of the night, bad dreams
Tomorrow is full of promise with new dawn
And future as bright as you can make it
With resolve, determination, seeking God
Climbing every mountain in life to the summit
Having faith in yourself and brotherhood of Man.
Smiling, my father told me of a Jewish man
Who taught of love and peace, walked upon water
Raised the dead, healed the sick, and loved the poor.

.........................and make the blinds SEE...........thank you! My late father was like Jesus, my father looked like a jew but he was our own, not a jew.BUT his soul resembles Jesus, my father lived like Jesus, humble, honest and soft-hearted.He truly grew to Jesus' embodying
