Our Holy God above, is named the Great I Am–<\/p>\n
So who am I, but bit of dust, to compare to Calvary’s Lamb?<\/p>\n
Truly, I am only dust, given life by Him;<\/p>\n
But what a blessed life I have, as He falls fresh within.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am a sorry, sin-filled soul, washed clean by Calvary’s blood–<\/p>\n
The thought of how He suffered, as it flowed just like a flood,<\/p>\n
Is one that makes me stand in awe, almost in disbelief,<\/p>\n
But Love that He showed forth that day, brought dusty souls relief.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am sent to tell the world of His great love for us.<\/p>\n
To tell of His Forgiveness of sin that rots and rusts<\/p>\n
The very bone and marrow that make our frame within,<\/p>\n
Then washes us with grace, given undeserved by Him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am a slave to Heaven’s jewel–My Master loves me so!<\/p>\n
I pray there’s nothing He would ever ask, with answer, “No!”<\/p>\n
For just as dust is scattered when cleaning chores are done,<\/p>\n
He can scatter me wherever sinful souls need won.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am a student of His Word; it fills my mind each day.<\/p>\n
To feel Him walk beside me, jolts my step to one of sway.<\/p>\n
To read the Word, and learn of love the Father gives to all,<\/p>\n
I am blessed each day, humbly leading this dust ball.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
