Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5
Way beyond my understanding.
All i know is
It was a miracle
And the miracle was a gift.
Delivered to crumbling doorstep
Outside my sagging door locked tight
Nailed shut.
Yet breached,
It sat inside on rotting floor
Shining to be opened.
To be believed past unbelief
By miracle, not my work.
Gift
It is salvation wrapped in grace undeserved.
The gift of faith to see hope once unseen.
A new heart unchained
Full with compassion
And repentance like a switching wind.
Heart to feel abundant love long unfelt
And eyes to see as i am seen
Then others too, the same.
And mercy, charity, a call to pray
A heart to sing, a heart to worship,
Hands to raise.
All unwrapped and taken out,
When gift, upon gift, inside gift, given
Then took away all fears and doubts
Healed my aching soul complete
And full and whole and more and more
A heart to tell of gifts and Glory
Of His Great Love,
And gratitude, a heart of thanks,
I thank you JESUS, thank you LORD!
That You should care for me,
To give me gifts,
Rebuild my house,
To give Yourself.
Miracles beyond my full understanding.
But nothing is beyond Yours!
