When John said,"Behold the Lamb of God
Who takes away the sin of the world."
He didn't point to something expected.
The Greatest Gift was not attractively packed,
Was not thunderously delivered.
He was a surprise nonetheless
A hard to believe garb around Him
He was the One longed for
But not that way!
In my life too, I wonder
What is the thunder I expect
And what is the gift I get?
Have I embraced it in faith
Or am I scorning it in disbelief?
O Gracious Father!
Help me see through Your eyes
Help me have a heart tuned to Yours;
May I please You
By accepting all the GOOD things that come from You
Joyfully,wholeheartedly...
Who takes away the sin of the world."
