The Lord Answers prayers

As I was reading a blog from a multiply friend, named Rene Caparas, I can't help appreciating every word that was written. I don't know why
but his words move me. it's as if it's touching my soul.

And with his write, I was inspired to write this poem.

The Lord Answers Prayers

By Rene Caparas

I pray to the Lord to show his face unto me by using the clouds as his
paint in a big canvass above. I wish Him to give me cumulus clouds I

could photograph and turned into a poster. For few days and few weeks
it did not come. I wait. And I wait.

This morning at 6:00 a.m. I saw not just one set of perfect cumulus
clouds but hundreds and hundreds. I
requested him to show me sun's
rays passing along a wall of clouds. He did. This morning he showed
me one. Sadly, I left my camera at home. He has a great sense of
humor. He gives me
what
I want but He did not allow me to photograph it. He is a shy Lord. He

covers His face with clouds. When I thought that he was the sun behind
the rain-dark-clouds I insist to see
and photograph Him. I was blinded by his brightness. So this is it to see Him---like a
sun that is so bright it blinded me. I find it difficult to navigate
inside my room to locate my camera
and get a picture of that scene.

The Lord Answers Prayers

(Inspired by Rene Caparas’ Blog entry)


So many cobwebs of doubts

Was lurking in my mind

So many questions

Waiting for answers.


God’s answering methods

Are rare and deep

But this I know,

He will answer prayers

In his own way…

In his own time.


So I pray and will wait

For my question’s answers

Even it would mean

A lifetime of waiting

All I know is he will answer

The least I expect it.


I trust him with all my faith

For he is the wisest

To grant my quest

And answer my prayers

Far more blest.
