As I sit
and ponder
all the
wisdom of
Your ways,
And gaze
upon gray
skies of
dreary
passing
days;
The cold
and
starless
evenings
of
seemingly
endless
nights,
I realize
without
them, I
could not
know Your
light!
When I
walk in
solemn
sadness,
in
aloneness
and in
pain,
When I
think that
I will
never see
the joys
of life
again;
I must
reflect
upon the
times I
didn't
know that
You were
there.
Though You
have
always
been
waiting,
with
patience
and with
care.
When I
think of
all my
"wisdom",
my worldly
ways of
lust,
The things
I couldn't
live
without,
the things
that were
a must,
The
"riches"
that I
gathered,
the
foolish
things I
sought,
I know the
richest
prize of
all, You
have
already
bought!
As I sit
in
meditation
over the
wonders of
Your hand,
The
greatest
wonder of
my
life...You
took me as
I am!
You have
washed
away my
sins,
forgiven
my worldly
lust.
That is
why my
life is
Yours...the
Only One I
trust!
So, Father
I give
thanks
today for
giving me
Your Son.
He has
claimed my
life, my
soul, He,
the Holy
One!
I need no
other gift
in life,
no costly,
earthly
pleasure.
The
Father,
Son and
Holy Ghost
are my
greatest
Treasure!

your
treasure
is, there
your heart
will be,
also!
Matthew
6:21
My purpose
is that
they may
be
encouraged
in heart
and united
in love so
that they
may have
the full
riches of
understanding,
in order
that they
may know
the
mystery of
God,
namely
Christ, in
whom are
hidden all
the
treasures
of wisdom
and
knowledge!
Colossians
2:2-3
