I pictured a hourglass just sitting,
the sand my lifetime running out.
I wondered if,at the falling of that last grain
my ears would hear the angels shout.
Each season of me I spend upon this earth,
seems to take a little more of me away.
I have felt His loving gratitude,
for those returned to His fold.
How He used me time and again,
to show them His love.
For them to know anothers love was enough,
to return home to Him.
God grateful to me?
Could I dare such a saying?
Why would He do such a thing?
He could have done it all, with a snap of His fingers.
Yet He chose to let me see,how it’s done
by doing it for Him.
Just to show me His gratitude,
for allowing His Son within me.
Nothing exceptional,just doing my duty in the
fulfillment for Him who is called master.
“But which of you, having a servant plowing
or feeding cattle,will say unto him by and by,
when he is come from the fields,Go and sit down to meat?
And will not rather say unto him,Make ready wherewith
I may sup,and gird thyself,and serve
me,till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward
thou shalt eat and drink?
Doth he thank that servant because he did
the things that were commanded him?I trow not.
So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all
those things which are commanded you,say,We are
unprofitable servants: we have done that which
was our duty to do.”
Luke17:7,8,9,10
My thanks,My love,My Lord.
