The man whispered,
"God, speak to me"
And a meadowlark sang,
But the man did not hear.
So the many yelled,
"God, speak to me!"
And the thunder rolled
across the sky,
But the man did not listen.
The man looked around and said,
"God, let me see you"
And a star shone brightly
But the man did not notice.
And the man shouted,
"God show me a miracle"
And life was born.
But the man did not know.
So, the man cried out in despair.
"Touch me God and let me know
that you are here!"
Whereupon God reached down
and touched the man,
But the man brushed the butterfly
away and walked on.
MORAL:
Don't miss out on a blessing
because it isn't packaged
the way you expect.
May the Lord bless all of you!
