You are Like..

A warm hug when one has been drenched by the rain and cold
The beauty of a rainbow after a mighty and thunderous storm
A broad shoulder to lean on when one needs someone to listen
The love that can never be replaced nor be diminished

The joy one has because they are alive when they should have been dead
That one outfit that suits one perfectly, and every time it is worn one turns heads
The bond between a child and the parents, a bond that can never be broken or changed
The unique fingerprints and features that each human being has like our DNA

The sound of a sunny song that always gets you happy and on your feet
The tears that fall from the sky and sit/rest beautifully on a leaf
The fresh breeze first thing in the morning after the rains have come
The wonder of a baby being born as they come out into the world

A miracle that was desperately needed, intensively prayed and waited for
The feeling one gets after receiving Christ and knowing that they are forgiven
The sun shinning down on everyone, giving light to the world
All the mutants combined, a God full of might, different powers and works

The moon which gives light in the darkness, the dreary seasons in our paths
The breath we breathe, vital for our survival in order for us live and be here
A great story that is forever spoken off, timeless, and it passes down to all the ages
A delicious dish, once tasted you can never get enough of it as the taste is too amazing

Water when someone is so thirsty that they are about to faint or take their last breath
Justice that is brought to someone who is innocent, a savior protecting us from our enemies
A lawyer pleading on behalf of our very lives as well as our souls so we can be together
A rushing waterfall, mighty in its power but also lovely to look at and behold forever

The perfect example of what is means to truly love, forgive and sacrifice ones self
A restful slumber full of peace and sweet dreams and one wakes up feeling refreshed
A bank that is open anytime and everywhere that you need it, and you can withdraw any amount as it has no limit
A best friend who is always there who shares and encourages you in all your experiences

A mother and father giving us love, boundaries, keeping us in line, focused and obedient
A diary, as the writings are honest, open, very accurate and there is nothing hidden
Laughing gas making one laugh and squeal because of a touch from the Holy Spirit
Learning some thing new, which is something you do daily so there is no ending

A Shepard leading one to green pastures, and always looking out and after us
A potter molding and shaping us if we are willing, into something marvelous
An eraser, erasing our shameful pasts and sins as you say you no longer remember them
A ray of sunshine warming ones heart and giving them hope and joy for eternity

The greatest that we could ever imagine but ten times better, in your own league with no other contender
Ones heart beat an indication that their alive a steady beat that is constant and like no other
The functions of our mind, body and spirit and without them we would be derailed and lacking
An operation that gives sight to the blind, dump and disabled as you awaken and enable us showing us a different world and vision
The words forever and endless as there is no end to the things that you are like Lord, you are constant, loving and forgiving so please always be the God that you are who is amazing and inexplicable
