Tho' I had planned my visit
To Branson, USA,
It's more than me, that wished it
It seems God had His way.

So after I was tattooed
Expecting then a low,
Things so differently insued
God handled it, I know!

I went to a Magic Show
Which had great slight of hand,
There I was,on the front row
To see more than I'd planned.

And to help out, who'd they choose
Not once, but twice, but ME!
With such I was quite amused--
This Opportunity!

For me to get out of self,
And get put on display,
Right of passage-off the shelf--
The start of a New Day!

The magic show was first rate
Impossible--seemed true,
WE all were so well amazed
Just what those men could do!

But right there, behind the scenes
God showed His Magic, too,
And He emphasized, it seems
To me what He could do.

Singled out, of all those there
His message came to me,
As His insight He would share--
Speak to my present need.

"What you've seen is illusion
I give Reality!
Allow not blind confusion
Deny not what CAN be!"

"Now things seem impossible
In your life, re-arranged,
If man can do-what you've viewed
Much more, then I, unchanged!"

What was for some amusement
Was Spiritual to me,
God's magic, means fulfillment
Which by His will, I'll see!

I believe as you do that God is everywhere, even at a magic show.  And I think we get little messages to help us through our trials.  My best to you David.  Love, Joyce

Oh so true. God's works, although mysterious, are definitely not trickery or deciet. David, you see Him in all things, because of your heart.  Like beauty being largely in the eye of the beholder.

Glad you got some R&R wrote and shared this with us.  Thank you and God bless.

There is MAGIC in the realization that GOD loves YOU and wants the very best for YOU.  Things can appear quite differently when you, by faith trust in the security of the Love and  Providence of God.  Your perception of the ordinary and the extra-ordinary will become even more acute.  To GOD be the Glory!

Peace unto you,  Write On!
