Watching Streams Become Canyons
Once it was just a stream. Insignificant amidst the grand design. But this gently flowing thing would carve majesty through time. All that lived from day to day did fail to see it's awesome might. Until the ages came and went revealing a canyon there in sight. And so it goes. The heart, the soul, in flesh contained must see with hope what eyes can't see. For the time from stream to canyon grand has no measure in God's eternity. So believe in life that is eternal. Life set free from time's embrace. Believe in Jesus and He'll be there waiting with open arms and a smile on His face. Then enjoy an instant in God's time.... watching streams become canyons. |
