Live In The Wonder

As I was holding my infant
Grand daughter

A truth entertained me

This is a wonderful

Horrible world

How can this world be both

I asked

It is large enough to hold everything

Was their reply

But I don’t want the world

To be such a place

Then live in the wonder

But what of the dark

And hideous side

“The light shines in the darkness

And the darkness has not overcome it” (Jn. 1:5 NIV)

Was their reply
