Searching For God

© John P. Read

When searching for God,
There’s no need to look far.
He’s not in the clouds
Or some faraway star.

He doesn’t hide in the shadows,
Even though he’s hard to see.
God resides in the minds
Of those who believe.

Our bodies are a temple,
So be good; never stray.
Be truthful and honest.
Praise God every day.

For God is your spirit.
God is your soul.
God’s in your heart.
God is love; this I know.
