 "For in the image of God have human beings been made." - Genesis 9:6
The building was being erected block by block. You could see this happening before your eyes. It seemed like one day they were working on the first floor, and the next day they were working on the second floor. Block by block. It's like our spiritual life. Each day we strive to be bigger and stronger than the previous day. In retrospect, it seems like it's day by day. But in reality, it takes a lifetime. Block by block. O God, construct me in your image and likeness. Build me block by block, day by day, until you call me home at the end of my life. Amen. TAGS: Prayer, Reflection  As you reflect on this poem, remember that you always have a faithful friend in Jesus.
How many of you can find a faithful friend? That will stick close by you unto the very end When trouble comes they will never forsake Always ready to give more than they will take A friend like that is so very hard to find One you can count on to talk and unwind Someone that's concerned about how you feel Cares for you deeply with a love that's real A friend when in need is a friend indeed Show yourself friendly by sowing the seed How sweet are the words spoken between friends Just like a balm that heals or a needle that mends A friend that sticks closer than any brother Very trustworthy and not the same as another You can count on them to answer when you call There to help you when your back is to the wall --Written by Patricia Grantham, copyright 2013 TAGS: Reflection |
