What Words?


If God should grant me here but one more day,
What would I write to you? What would I say?
My words alone would not be proof enough
To evidence the wisdom of his love...
And if by chance the stars might dim from view,
What might I give to show his heart to you?
The riches of this world would ne’er suffice
In payment for his awesome sacrifice...
And if today he came back in the clouds,
How might I catch my breath to speak out loud
Above the happy choir of sainted song
What Joy! What Peace! alone to him belongs?
So, how might I explain to you these things
Beyond the joyous flap of angels wings?
I can’t -- I know -- It’s destined from above
that only Jesus bring to you his Love.

God bless,

Lighthouse Bob

Joyce,

Thank you for your kind Welcome. It’s really really nice to be back home. I had a stint
with diabetic retinopothy (blindness) and I felt in my spirit that I needed to give my time and eyes on the computer a break. I missed everyone as well and as soon as I got on the internet, I logged into my favorite site and (yay!) it was great to again see so many familiar names. God bless and thanks so very very much for your love, prayers and concern. -Bob
