HOW CAN WE POSSIBLY MISS GOD?

 










HOW CAN WE POSSIBLY MISS GOD?


The SUN comes up

Every morning=we get sunshine=

Sometimes rain


We get everything that we NEED

To SUSTAIN our lives=

HOW can we POSSIBLY MISS

Seeing God in our world?


How can we miss SEEING GOD

In our lives?


We eat=we breathe=we sleep=

We have jobs=we have money=

We have a ROOF over our heads


Keep your eyes WIDE OPEN=

God is ALIVE=how can we

Ever miss him?


“He entered a house-

And wanted NO ONE

To know about it-


But he

Could not escape notice”                                                                                          Mark 7:24


We scan our lives

LOOKING for God

Just a glimpse of him=here=


Or a glimpse of him there=

But GOD IS EVERYWHERE


God is everything in our lives=

IF he ceased to love us=

For just one second

We would cease to breathe


God no longer hides from us

He lives WITHIN US and all

AROUND US=he is everywhere


“Does he who

FASHIONED the ear

Not hear


Does he

Who formed the eye

NOT SEE?”                                                                                                   Psalm 94:9


“The eye

Is the lamp

Of the body


IF your eyes are healthy

Your whole body

Will be FULL OF LIGHT”                                                                                           Matthew 6:22


“Join together in following

My example=brothers and sisters


And just as you

Have us as a model

KEEP your eyes on those


Who live as we DO”                                                                                                 Philippians 3:17


LIVE like Christ=FIND LIFE=

Do you not see it?

Do you not see Christ=God=

ALIVE in the world?


Keep your eyes WIDE OPEN=

God is alive everywhere=

You live


He is IN

The crisp golden sun=

He is in the RED=of a cardinal


GOD CANNOT escape our notice=

If we are willing to WATCH

With our EYES wide open


“Those who LOOK to him

Are RADIANT=

Their faces-

Are NEVER covered with shame”                                                                      Psalm 34:5


OMNI-PRESENT GOD=help us to keep=

Our eyes wide open


So that we never miss SEEING

YOUR PRESENCE in today's world


In the names of Jesus and his ALL-SEEING and ALL-LOVING FATHER


Robert P. Wallman
