A Poem


This is a poem I came across. I thought it was sweet and wanted to share it.



A child sat on Jesus' lap in the splendor of Heaven.
The child asked, "Is it time?"
Jesus parted the clouds, looked and said, "No, not yet child."
The child asked, "When will it be time?"
Jesus replied, "When lessons are learned, hardships endured, and loneliness lived, then it will be time."
Time passed. The child asked, "Is it time?"
Jesus parted the clouds, looked and said, "No, not yet child."
The child asked, "When will it be time?"
Jesus replied, "When maturity is reached, self-worth affirmed and spirits strengthened, then it will be time.
Time passed. The child asked, "Is it time?"
Jesus parted the clouds, looked and said, "Their love is strong and their hearts are open.
Yes, now it is time-Your parents are ready."
