Crow and Dove at Sunrise

July 4, 2020 / pastorpete51 / Leave a comment

It’s all for You God who has sent this sunrise

Dove softly cooed as he opened his eyes

Haw – Haw laughed the Crow as He shouted right back

It’s all about me let’s not get this off track

Uh-uh it’s for God who gives us our life

Dove gently sings in the new morning light

Mine- mine it’s for me Crow mocks and he laughs

This all is for me – everything in my grasp

Oh how I wish you could see the Dove cries

It’s all about Him till the dark evening skies

Don’t worry so much I’m sure it’s my day

Mr. Crow proudly caws as he’s flapping away

Leaving Dove silently sitting alone

Where He quietly lifted a prayer to the throne

And he heard in a voice his God speaking so clear

I’ll be right by your side just believe never fear!

This week-end I came across a feather that one of the hawks in our neighborhood lost in a tussle with a mocking bird. It was still so well preserved that i brought it home and washed it and then mailed it off with this poem to our youngest grandson. I hope that it may be a blessing to some other child like thinking friends out there. I hope everyone has a great week!

Faith is Like a Feather

Faith is like a feather

That can move a million pounds

It can shake a mighty mountain

Without making any sounds

It sings when we are lonely

And sits close when we are sad

Then carries us to Jesus

To forgive us when we’re bad

It will teach us to keep praying

Even when we’re growing weak

And will fly with us to heaven

Where with Jesus we will meet

I posted this poem last year but in light of the daily death tolls drubbing on our minds; I thought that maybe this little verse will help as you face yours.

Two Men in Two Storms

Two men went down to the sea one day

Paul in chains and Jonah running away

“I need to lie down” was all Jonah could say

So he slept through the storm

When he should have prayed

But prisoner Paul cried to God in his boat

Till an angel came down with a message of hope

Then with joy he encouraged his friends

Saying Jesus would keep them all safe in the end

It took a big fish to get Jonah to go

Tell others of mercy and God’s love for the world

But our friend Saint Paul shows us the right way

That when God sends the storm we must trust and obey!
