When we really look at
Our inner selves
We get to see how blessed
We truly are.
After the heart healing,
The contemplation
And soul searching,
We find our blessings
Come to us in many different forms
Some of which remain unseen
Til the end of weathered storms.
God knows all, hears all and sees all
He knows when we're feeling lost
He knows when we need fulfillment.
And as fellow poet, Brother mlowe5
Put it in such an eloquent perspective
As he commented on one of my works
Entitled "Doing Okay", he said
"Yes indeed! Isn't it wonderful
How the most high God
Knows when we feel empty?
And then He overflows
Our cup of Grace so
That we suddenly find ourselves
Sipping from our saucer."
Putting to rest any amount
Of doubt we may harbor
That we're doing
Any less than okay.
Now imagine his statement
Just for a moment.
And think about that cup of Grace.
Can you imagine how much
Our world would change
If we reached a point
Within ourselves where
We could see all of the blessings
God gives us from
That cup of Grace?
Our most fulfilling blessings
Come when our heads
Are bowed in prayer,
Our hands are raised with praise,
And our hearts reverently humbled.
We were asked to have faith
In Him no matter what
And if we hold as much faith
In him as a grain of a mustard seed
We'll see and understand
The extent to which His grace
Can truly take us
Even when we're still
Sipping from our saucers.
So be vigilant with
Your inner selves
And of the blessings
Given to you that flow
Free and unconditionally
From that cup of Grace.
You wouldn't want to miss out
Stay humble my friends.
