"Pondering in Awe"

 1Peter1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
 15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
 16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
 17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:
 18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
 25 But the word of the Lord endureth forever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.


“Pondering in Awe”

Have you heard the wind
seeing it pass you by today
carrying leaves and limbs
moving huge trees about
tossing the waves and sea
are you able to feel within
understanding a stranger
residing their looking about
pondering in awe this life
seeing good evil strife
wanting at some to shout
telling them of quick danger
knowing the veil is so thin
wanting all to really see
kicking the adversity out
thinking of sacred hymns
thus able to kneel to pray
our covenants to refine!
