"His Voice Today"
December 21
🔸️ The children God gave to us, is the debt that God needs to get back! 🔸️
The following poem neatly illustrates our responsibility for the children God gave to us:
"Short-term debt your child!" said God;
"Love the child till his life,
Give him back to me when he died."
One or two or five or four or three years!
Will you inquire about the time when I call him?
Your joy is the ecstasy he gives....
'Trivial' can last, at that grief.....
His memories are your comfort!
I can't able to vow to give him permanently.
Know that everything on Earth should come back!
I know the lessons to be learned on Earth....
I also wanted the baby that I gave to learn it.....for that,
I searched the entire world to get a teacher.
I knew only you among the men of the Earth!
Will you give all your love to him?
Will you think, all your efforts are in vain?
Wouldn’t you hate me when I stretch out my hand to get me back the ‘child whose time is up’?
Parents responded politely:
"Dear God, let Your will be done"
May this child give us divine joy.
May we endure when tragedy strikes!
Protect favourably.....the love till end!
Let's get the joy he gives, with gratitude!!
If you come before the finish of the plans for him......
Let us bear courage in the grief of bitterness...
We will seek to know only your purpose...."
Prayer:
Our loving Father! You gave the children as debt, trusting us as parents; Give us the grace to love and teach him in the right way and to hand over to you with joy at the right time! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
