Why Don’t They Believe?...a poem from the heart

I’m so amazed by you Lord, how you chose to come for me
As a baby boy wrapped in cloth for warmth

 Why Don’t They Believe?

Dear God,

They say you don’t exist
You seek them but they still resist
They think we are all alone
Yet one day we’ll be forever home

Oh, why don’t they believe?

They don’t believe you came for me
In perfect harmony
With this world that you designed
From the start we were in your mind

If only they could feel what I feel
If only they could see what I’ve seen
If only they could hear your voice
In the stillness of a summer breeze
Oh why don’t they believe?

They unashamedly say your name in vain
Ignore your anger when you send the stormy rain
Go on and on as if they’re right
Disregard your power, glory, and might

Oh, why don’t they believe?

They don’t believe you came for me
In perfect harmony
With this world that you designed
From the start we were in your mind

If only they could feel what I feel
If only they could see what I’ve seen
If only they could hear your voice
In the stillness of a summer breeze
Oh why don’t they believe?


They say they haven’t felt your presence
Well I’ve felt your Holy Spirit in my very essence
They say they haven’t heard your voice
Well I’ve heard your voice again and again
They need to know it’s all about choice
They say they haven’t seen you before
Well, I’ve seen you - in my dreams, in the beauty of the sunset, in the colors of a rainbow, in my child’s eyes, the dew in the morning, the snow falling in pure perfection, a perfect summer’s night, the stars in the sky, the sun shining bright, in the vows on my wedding day, in the words on a page, the painted fall landscapes, the soaring mountains, the blooming flowers in the spring, the grand oceans, the soft sand on my feet, all the delights and happiness I’ll ever need-I’ve seen the ones you’ve sent- the angels watching over us-Oh how I want them to believe, they must-they really must.

Oh, why don’t they believe?

They don’t believe you came for me
In perfect harmony
With this world that you designed
From the start we were in your mind

If only they could feel what I feel
If only they could see what I’ve seen
If only they could hear your voice
In the stillness of a summer breeze
Oh why don’t they believe?

Not only did you come for me, you came for them too
I want them to know that You can make them new

Your Child,
Shawna

I’ll keep praying for the lost; the broken; the ones who don’t believe
Because some things are REAL whether you believe them or not.
God Bless & Merry Christmas! Christ is surely the REASON for the SEASON!
