Redeeming the time, because the days are evil Ephesians 5:16
We cannot really lose the hour
For it’s not ours to keep
And our Lord who knows the time
Will guard us as we sleep
And when our worries, hopes and dreams
May fill our troubled in our mind
Remember how He gave His life
His own lost sheep to find

Some Black-eyed Susans, some lilacs sweet
Join Roses and Foxgloves for one short week
In the vase on the table and displayed with pride
Till their petals fall and are gathered and dried
Then tenderly placed with one long last look
And pressed between pages in our memory book
When our petals fall and our beauties fade
We search for our rest in life’s growing shade
In the book written by the hand of the Lord
Where souls are remembered, and hopes are restored
While we wait for Spring by the empty tomb
And the word of the Lord makes dried flowers bloom
The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God will stand forever. Isaiah 40:8 ESV

“Don’t you like the window that we just installed?”
He asked when he saw that she wasn’t enthralled
“But Gramma the level was perfect” he said
But she was certain still shaking her head
“It’s the eye of the artist,” she replied with a grin
So he went to the window to check it again
Then sure as the sun sets each day in the West
His level confirmed it was low on the left
Now, twenty years later I recall with a smile
That the work that we did was still off by a mile
We just didn’t notice the sag of the sash
But the eye of the artist saw all in a flash
And the Artist of Heaven, left His throne room above
To come to my window and fix it with love
For the eye of the artist sees beyond who I am
Then He lifts me up by the blood of the Lamb
For the Son of man came to seek and save the lost. Luke 19:10 NLT
