The Seeing Eye of God

When I look back
and only see
hurts
received from others
and failures
of my own,
I miss
what God has done,
his grace
to forgive,
to heal,
to work
his good
in me.

And even now
the seeing eye
of God,
watching,
loving,
holding me.

I cannot see
yet need not fear
the future.
Nothing
that may come to be
can take me
from his love
and care.
He sees
and knows -
that is enough
for me.
