I’m god’s therapist
I sit with God as He shares His pain,
Listening closely as He tries to explain,
The weight on His shoulders, the burdens He bears,
The agony He endures, the sadness He shares.
He speaks of wars, of hate and of greed,
Of hunger and poverty that make His heart bleed,
Of broken families, of loss and of grief,
Of shattered dreams and unfulfilled beliefs.
Sometimes I offer a word or two,
But mostly I remain still, just like glue,
Holding the space for Him to unfold,
To release His emotions, to let go and be bold.
And as He speaks, I offer a listening ear,
A compassionate heart, a presence sincere,
I witness His pain with love and with care,
Hoping to alleviate some of His despair.
For even God needs someone to talk to,
A therapist to listen, to offer a clue,
To help Him navigate the rocky road,
And find some peace in the heavy load.
So I'll sit with Him, for as long as He needs,
Holding the space, planting seeds,
Of hope, of love, of compassion and grace,
Creating a safe haven, a sacred space.
