EARS TO HEAR - AND EYES TO SEE - HAVE I

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

WRITTEN   29 : 12: 12 

Now - ears to hear - and eyes to see - have I .
Because of Him - who saw me in my rags - and 
Did not pass me by .
The One who had all Heaven - at His dispose -
And yet - did not despise - my humble - wretched -
Earthen clothes.
All else may pass me by - and never miss 
The place - when I am gone - But He who left 
Celestial Courts - was happy to stoop down - and 
Wash my feet - and tell me -
I am His alone .

What did I do to earn such love as this  - that woke 
My sleeping eyes - with Heaven's touch - and gentle kiss ?
What treasure did He see - that buried lay - for many years -
That only His pure sight - could yet reveal - that others 
Missed - or cast away .?

Oh wondrous love - that came to dwell - in this so
Faithless child - with damaged wings - and broken shell - and 
Yet - He took each shattered part - and molded me - until 
He saw a Temple - fit for His great Royalty - and filled 
My heart .

' My God - my God ' - is all these fire-cleansed lips can
Now proclaim - as I am His own child - called by 
His sealed orders - and - His Holy Name . 
Come - show me now - what is Your will for me - by
Which to live today ? - that will - this mortal life empower -
And - glorify this vessel - made 
Of common clay ?.

John 15 : 5 Jesus says....

I am the Vine ; and you are the branches . If a man remains in Me 
and I in him , he will bear much fruit ; apart from Me you can do 
nothing .

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Apart from the inworking Power of God in our lives ..we cannot 
achieve anything of value .. for the Kingdom and purposes of God .

I want to be a vessel of honour for Him..

Do you ?


with love from Stella x
