A Mercy-kindled Beckoning

As we approach the throne of  grace may we be reminded to

not grow weary in our prayers for what seems impossible 

(so much sin, sickness and sorrow!) because

... "with God nothing will be impossible.” Luke 1:37

The God that created the world,

The God that parted the Red Sea,

that snowed manna in the wilderness,

that tumbled the walls of Jericho

That closed the mouths of lions,

That walked in the fiery furnace

that walked on the water,

that provided a Spotless Lamb once for all sinners

oh, and as written here in

 John 21:25

Jesus did many other things as well. 

If every one of them were written down, 

I suppose that even the whole world 

would not have room for the books

 that would be written.!

Yes! This God is with us!

He fuels our sometimes-wavering

 faith with unwavering faithfulness!

The great Designer and Creator of heaven and earth is with us!

It trembles in each breath, each smile

It fuels poems, still unpenned

It lures us like a country mile

To see what lies beyond the bend

It helps us greet the day at hand

And God’s replenished grace, with zeal

To return to duty’s demand

And what today waits to reveal

Though veiled, it draws us to pursue

Proposals with hope’s precious urge

Like arms outstretched in welcome to

All who approach its holy verge

That always authors reckoning

From what no one can fully see

Of mercy-kindled beckoning
