LETTING GOD'S GRACE FLOW THROUGH US




LETTING GOD'S GRACE FLOW THROUGH US
As I sit down
To write this
I am sitting in a hotel
In Pittsburgh, Pa.
On WATER STREET
Staring out the window
At the CHANGING leaves
And the Monongahela  River
What better PLACE to write
A poem=about God's GRACE
Flowing through us?
"Wherever the river flows=
EVERY sort of living creature
That can multply
SHALL LIVE"                                                                                                                         Ezekiel 47:9
The WORDS of Ezekiel
And the IMAGE of flowing water
Brings up the idea
Of God's ever-flowing
GRACE=flowing through each and
Every one of us
Just as water
RENEWS parched land=
The mighty sea=provides NEW LIFE=
Abundant food and HEALING
And God's ever-flowing GRACE
Helps to heal us
As it FLOWS through us=
Each and every day
Letting GOd'S GRACE
Flow through us=to bring us
EVERLASTING LIFE
"They gave MOSES this account
'We went into the land
To which you sent us
And it does FLOW
With milk and honey!
Here is the fruit'"                                                                                                                   Numbers 13:27
"'Let anyone who is thirsty
Come to me and drink
Whoever believes in me
As Scripture has said
Rivers of LIVING WATER
Will FLOW from within them'"                                                                                         John 7:38
Envision God's grace
Flowing through you
AS we go forth
To LOVE & SERVE GOD
In our daily lives
Just let God's grace
Flow through you
FLOW THROUGH US
"You are
The most excellent of men
And your lips
Have been anointed
With GRACE
Since God has
BLESSED you forever"                                                                                                            Psalm 45:2
"And the child
Grew and became strong
He was filled with wisdom
And the GRACE OF GOD
Was on him"                                                                                                                     Luke 2:40
"GRACE and peace to you
From God our Father
And the Lord Jesus Christ
Who gave himself
For our sins
To rescue us
From the present evil age
According to the will of our God
And Father
To whom all glory
Forever and ever=Amen"                                                                                                Galatians 1:3-5
Dear Lord=DEAR GOD
Of our EVER FLOWING GRACE=
Renew our FAITH every day
And speak your WORDS
Into our hearts
So we can SPEAK THEM to the world
With your BEAUTIFUL GRACE
In Jesus' name and the name of
OUR ALL LOVING FATHER
