Can We Depend On Anyone To Help Us? Poem by Terence George Craddock

Can We Depend On Anyone To Help Us?

Rating: 5.0


there are many famous sayings
'when things get tough the tough get going'
but where do they go what do they do?
'a rolling stone gathers no moss'
busy implications but on a steep hillside
rolling stones rocks avalanches are dangerous
'idle hands make the devil's work'
meaning to busy working to get in trouble

to get to the point when we are in trouble
when we incapable cannot help ourselves
who will come to our aid who will help us
can we depend on anyone to help us
can we depend on anyone to carry us
perhaps a neighbour stranger will help us

the famous 'Footprints in the Sand'
poem also called 'Footprints' is origins
disputed claimed by at least a dozen;
different people who said they wrote it
it is clear not all twelve penned this poem
many prose texts poems mention footprints;

But what does this Bible picture quote
with footsteps God carries us mean?

the original origins are all in the Bible
God and Biblical writers wrote the source
God and Biblical writers claim their words
Exodus 19: 4 God said 'I bore you on eagles'
wings, and brought you to Myself.'

We need God Yes, we need God to believe God lives in our pure belief Everything in this world is happening on the base of the cause of effects formula On whom we depend is this Belief is this God or else Our confidence or to save us we need do something betterment yes that's why I name it Belief in God is confidence cause if I do nothing and lazily waiting on belief in God no one will come to help, cause God says " I help those who help themselves"

The Maori haka is all NZ needs coupled with the All Blacks agressiveness. Go forth and multiply.
