"One, Two, Three - God I See" (poem)

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Wrote a poem for my tomorrow's CLOW class (Children's Liturgy of the Word.)

Fourth Sunday of Lent        John 3:14-21

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son”

 ~ One, Two, Three – God I See ~

God is three, God is one,

Unto us came God’s son.

Jesus – God – pure and kind,

Healed the sick, cured the blind,

God’s light shone, made them see:

God is one, God is three.

Father, Son, Spirit – God,

When you ask, we shall nod,

“Yes,” we’ll say, “we choose light

Over blindness and night,

We shall not follow sin,

We shall keep faith within,

It will show us the way,”

This is what we shall say.

And so happy he’ll be –

Our God – one, and three.

'Walking with Jesus'

“He approached, grasped her hand, and helped her up.
Then the fever left her, and she waited on them.”

Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Mark 1:29-39

I taught Children's Liturgy of the Word for the first time yesterday.  Here's a poem I wrote for the class.

~Walking with Jesus~

I do not have

His power divine,

But I am Him,

His path is mine.

From dawn till dusk -

My pace is quick –

With Him I walk,

And cure the sick.

With hope and love

I show them care –

His Word I spread,

His faith I share.

Live for the Love of it,
The Happy Amateur
