Compassion (Matthew 14)
In a time of greatest heartbreak
In the midst of just wanting to be alone
He showed us why He was worthy
To step down from heaven’s throne
And become the Savior for all of us
He still lived off of Father’s compassion
He still went an extra mile
Even pushing the disciples into their destiny
I can feel and see His smile
When He said, “Bring those things to Me.”
A simple prayer, a simple faith
In the goodness and power of God
And in the midst of great sorrow and need
Jesus gives a simple nod
And there is more than enough for all
In a time of greatest heartbreak
In the midst of just wanting to be alone
He waits to lead us to our destiny
He longs to show us His home
And allow us to bring it where we live
With basketfuls left over…
Kelly,
ReplyDeleteI'm struck by those five words: "Bring those things to Me."
I think of how tightly I hold on to things, when He has the ability to do a miracle. I've gotta learn to loosen my grip. I don't want to miss the miracles.
God bless you, brother. Thanks for your ministry of words here.
