For My Sister

Mar 1, 2019 | Blogs, Poetry Spotlight

The dead are raised to life. The blind are made to see. The lame
are made to walk. The lost are yet found. I AM is still working miracles!

Father, I marvel at your awesome miracle of salvation – the gift of grace, lest any should boast. From my mother’s womb there is holy blood-washed fruit. Dear Lord, I thank you for my sister.

For My Sister
When I look at you
I know there is a God:

A God who was always there
Whose unseen hand
Tempered every blow

A God of eternal vision
Who looked on one so marred
And saw a priceless treasure

A God of eternal purpose
Who took what the world rejected
And declared, a vessel of honor

A God of infinite love
Who gave His only Son
To call you, “Precious Daughter”

A God of sovereign power
Who silenced the accuser
And had the final say!

“But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.” Jeremiah 18:4


My Thoughts
My sister’s journey is one of triumph over adversity. The enemy’s plan to steal, kill, and destroy was no match for the will of God. I celebrate her life, and praise our Lord for His saving grace.
