GOD says to me
with a kind of smile,
"Hey how would you like
to be God awhile
And steer the world?"
"Okay," says I,
"I'll give it a try."
"Where do I sit?
How much do I get?
What time is lunch?
When can I quit?"
"Gimme back that wheel," says GOD.
"I don't think you're quite ready YET."
- By Shel Silverstein
Still my favorite children's poet.
It was tough this past week receiving news about Grandma. We have been calling up doctor friends and friends of doctors to see what alternatives there are. Can't help the helpless feeling but am reminded by this little wry poem that God is in the driver's seat.
