The robin wakes to magnificent streaks of color across the sky, But was too busy hunting worms to notice what was up high She flies through emerald trees dancing in the slight breeze, But dismissed it as nothing different than what she normally sees She tends to her vibrant blue eggs as they get ready to hatch, But fails to notice the importance of the batch She sinks into the nest in the moonlight, just shutting her eyes, But wait, what is way up in the sky? Why, it is a shooting star, glistening and shimmering high above, She smiles and is suddenly overwhelmed with God's love In that moment, she realized that life had a meaning, It was so much more than the hunting, working and cleaning, It was meant to teach slowly through every new opportunity, Until one day she and God will have complete unity.

The Robin Wakes
The way your eyes became filled with tears As I showed to you All my darkest fears I spoke to you of all my demons And time and again How I had seen them Dancing through my mind Filling me up with lies Holding me in a bind And you reached out your hand Time and time again Most times I shoved you away I would lie to your face Telling you I’m fine But you never turned away You told me you would stay And you were true to your word And through all this time I never could see it But you are the hands and feet of Jesus I questioned his love Thinking I could not be enough I felt all alone Even when I was not I was surrounded by his love But my eyes they were blind And you reached out your hand Over and over again Finally over time I see that the hand I called yours The hand I rejected Was never truly yours But it was the scarred hand of Jesus Reaching out to me And I see how he used you To change my life And finally I believe in his overwhelming love And I want to be used To help others too I want to be The hands and feet of Jesus

Hands and Feet
My salvation is not of silver. My salvation is not of gold. My salvation is because of LOVE. My salvation is because of GOD.
