Christ's Face

I gazed upon the mighty ocean waves and gasped at their startling potent power. Their crashing on the rugged rocks below, it gave me pause to stop and think of Him. Christ’s face before me gave me goodly cheer. I watched the eagle as it soared above. Its wondrous wings, they overspread the wind to reach the highest mountain top eyrie. Awestruck I never took my eyes away. Christ’s face before me gave me inner glow. I stared at frozen snow on mountain tops. Its brightness all but blinding to my eyes. In reverence I gazed at sparkling gems that twinkled in the early morning sun. Christ’s face before me gave me quick reward. I witnessed suffering in city streets. no one would stop to offer helping hand. The sorrow, sickness, sadness arising had me in tears for all humanity. Christ’s face before me gave me compassion. I walked past solemn faces in anguish. I hoped that each soul could be comforted and given light to guide their way to God, moving toward Him, ease their weary souls. Christ’s face before me gave me hopefulness. I kneeled that night in solemn thankfulness at seeing Christ’s face in my daily life. I feel I’m blessed and folded to His breast. In gratitude and praise, I call to Him. Christ’s face before me gave me salvation.
