    What Does Jesus See? 

    When Jesus looks upon my life,
    What picture does He see.
    Does He see His own reflection,
    Or does He just see me.

    Does He see His likeness,
    The product of His hand.
    Or just another Christian,
    Who never took a stand.

    Does He see a child of God,
    A child that He set free.
    Living life to honor Him,
    Or does He just see me.

    What about the other folks,
    I meet along the way.
    Do I show them Jesus,
    To brighten up their day.

    When someone looks into my eyes,
    Can they truly see.
    That calm and gentle peace of God,
    That dwells inside of me.

    When I reach out and shake a hand,
    Is He right there in my grip.
    Can they feel that strength from God,
    That steadies when I slip.

    When folks are in my presence,
    Do they know His Spirit’s there.
    Can they see that He’s the One,
    Who guides me everywhere.

    When other people think of me,
    What is on their mind.
    Do they think of Jesus Christ,
    So gentle and so kind.

    I try to be like Jesus,
    Every single day.
    Spreading love and kindness,
    All along my way.

    I’m afraid that I have failed,
    I could not pass the test.
    Deep inside my heart I know,
    I haven’t done my best.

    I have had to fight my flesh,
    Since the day that I was born.
    It’s always causing trouble,
    And being such a thorn.

    That’s why His Spirit dwells in me,
    He’s helping me to learn.
    In every situation,
    Where I need to turn.

    He knew I’d never pass the test,
    That’s why He took my place.
    He gave His life to save my soul,
    He suffered my disgrace.

    Now I try to be like Him,
    I must present Him well.
    So other folks will want His gift,
    And turn their backs on hell.

    Other folks should see the joy,
    That Christ has given me.
    They should want to have it too,
    Especially since it’s free.

    They should begin to ask me,
    What is it they must do.
    Just how it is they go about,
    Getting Jesus, too.

    Then I get to tell them,
    This wondrous gift is free.
    It only takes a humble heart,
    A prayer on bended knee.

    Someday when I’m face to face,
    With the Lord who set me free.
    Will He see His own reflection,
    Or will He just see me.

  • :sunny:Hay Lady! Great Poem!……………..Love the pic of you and yours back from 1982! You two could live back than and fit right in!Ha! So far the only Air-lines that both Philip and I find reasonable rates through is American Eagle. And alot of it had to do with how early you book a flight and what time of the year it is.  I am going to Dallas next month to meet Connie and from here K.C. Mo round trip is only $118.00 and that is cheaper than driving! It’s a 7 hour drive. My Pastor suggested that I bum a ride from one of my CO Drivers that Goes to Dallas! Ha!……..Paul (the Driver) and wife goes to our Church and we are all good friends but to ride in a Truck???………Maybe in March for the Heartbeat Conferance!…………Hope you have a Great Thursday!

quote and verse

Faith expects from God what is beyond all expectation.
- Andrew Murray -

God often comes to us,
not in dramatic and the spectacular,
but in quiet, unexpected ways ...
In a still, small voice,
a gentle whisper,
God makes known His love.

In quietness and trust
is your strength.
Isaiah 30:15

Pleasure, possessions, power, and privilege are ultimately worthless in comparison to the indescribable
joy of knowing GOD!!

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him,
and He shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:5,6

I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go:
I will guide thee with mine eye.
Psalm 32:8
