What does it mean
To be poor in spirit,
To be the first
Of the “blessed”
Named by the Savior?
Does it mean
He knows I am helpless
And empty,
Broken so many times
That not a drop
Of my self
Remains in this vessel?
Does it mean
He knows I am destitute,
Holding nothing
But bewilderment
And anguish
At what his design
Was meant to accomplish?
Dare I trust
To let go of the anger
In order to be healed?
Dare I trust
This broken, empty person
Will be filled;
That the child
Deep inside me
Will receive God’s mercy?
Dare I trust
That if I reach out
And take the hand
Of God
It will be open
With the gift of His kingdom
For me;
That my pride
And arrogance
Will be forgiven?
Dare I trust
That God will approve
Of all I am releasing
In order
To become His child?
Dare I trust
That God will approve
Of me?
Jesus says
“Blessed
Are the poor in spirit”.
Dare I trust
He says this
To me?
(poor, from Middle English poure, from Old French povre, from Latin pau, variant for pu, puer
from Greek pais meaning “child”)
(spirit, from Middle English, from Old French espirit, from Latin spiritus, spirare, from Greek
g(w)hre meaning “to breathe”)
Noah built an ark
Because God told him to
He said I'm going to flood the world
But only save a few.
The time that Noah built the ark
Was just like the world today
People going about their business
Merrily going along their way.
But God saw things differently
And His heart was filled with pain
The world was corrupt and violent
That's why God sent the rain.
Noah was a righteous man
He obeyed the Lord's command
So he took his family safe in the ark
Before God flooded the land.
As I look at this world today
The times are much the same
Mankind boasting in it's sin
While God's heart is full of pain.
So God warned Noah of the flood
And today is His hearts desire
That everyone should turn to Christ
And escape the judgement fire.
