Poetry

Abraham laughed and said I'm a hundred years old
When God told him that a baby son he would hold
He said why my wife is ninety years old and gray
That is way too funny, her having a child, no way

The words spoken by the Lord tickled Sarah so
To think that in her womb a child would grow
She was way past the normal child bearing age
That chapter in her life was surely a closed page

Pharaoh laughed when Moses said let my children go
Moses believed even though Paraoh's answer was no
Big Goliath heartily laughed at that puny little David kid
But David won with a stone and a slingshot, yes he did

Peter's friends laughed when he appeared at their door
After all he had been bound in chains on the prison floor
I imagine some laughed when Jesus was in the grave
And said to themselves, himself he could not save

But God had other plans for Jesus as on the third day
The angel of the Lord rolled that grave stone away
Who was laughing now when darkness turned to light
Jesus arose from the grave that must have been a sight

Nothing is impossible with God on your side
He can quieten even the most turbulent tide
What impossibilty makes you laugh or smile
Believe God and answers will come after a while
