| " IF " |
| If, I could see with His eyes, what could I see? A World of chosen people, only haven't yielded to the calling of His Voice. If, I could hear with His ears, what would I hear? Sounds of only praises, only haven't stopped long enough to change the channel. If, I could speak from His mouth, what would I speak? Whispers of Glory and Thanksgiving, only haven't learned to quiet my voice. If, I could smell from His nose, what would I smell? Fragrance from the alabaster jar of sweetness, only haven't stopped the pollution. If, I could feel with His hands, what would I feel? Softness and Gentleness, only haven't learned to forgive and forget. If, I could walk with His feet, where would I walk? Never ending Streets of Gold, only haven't learned not to go back where I have already been. If, I could pray where He prays, where would I pray? Next to the Father, only haven't learned to pray long enough to realize He's already next to me. World, Sounds, Whisper, Fragrance, Softness, Gentleness, Streets and Father. Take these words and place them before yourself, can you, will you, could you, would you, --------- place them in your life as the Lord has done? Looked upon the World, with Sounds of praise, Whispers of forgiveness, Fragrance of fresh air, Softness of His touch, Gentleness of His peace, Streets of never ending grace, only these could come from God the Father of the heavens and the earth. Only when we can look at ourselves as God has, can we come to realize that all these have been given to us. We just need to stop, look, listen, and most of all pray for His guidance in the direction He would have us to be. Amen.
