Being Human Poem

 

 

Being Human

Here our place this world be man and woman
Our creator gave us life of plenty
Thankful and grateful for being human

No matter your gender gave assuming

Happy your life that role meant He
Here our place this world be man and woman

To see, hear, taste, and touch in consuming

Here experiences of these many
Thankful and grateful for being human

For in spirit human state is lost

Which promises to this be better
As our Lord bought at His cost

To this our human life be a debtor

But was given in thought of free will
Our decision to live to His letter

Alive as human can be a thrill

Here our place this world be man and woman
To this the Lord gave us in goodwill

Thankful and grateful for being human

Thoughts: Although being human can be hard at times, it can also be a blessing. As human we can touch and feel, for the most part; and, can enjoy this of each other. Unlike, it will be once we transcend to our heavenly form. Don't take me wrong, as one speaking from personal experience, our heavenly form will be beyond imagination, wonderful, and of joy beyond measure. And the need of using our human senses we have here will be complete in a way unimaginable; much, much better. God gave us life to experience as humans. It's a wonderful thing to be able to partake in the human experience; but it want last long as we live here in this world towards our journey home to God in heaven. My feelings are I am thankful; and, my actions show (I hope) I am grateful to be here. While here there are experiences as human we want be able to have there in heaven. I don't know about others, but I am thankful and grateful for being human.  

Don't be so focused on the destination that you forget to enjoy the journey!
