WHAT IF HE . . .

17 Sep

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”  Philippians 4:19  KJV

 

💕

What if He hadn’t done it that day,

Fashioned our lives with compassion and clay.

💕

What if the Garden had soon been destroyed,

Because of man’s sin against God, there deployed.

💕

What if He hadn’t called Noah to build,

If He’d thought it easier if all had been killed.

💕

What if He hadn’t called Moses to lead,

Had left wayward people to tend Pharaoh’s needs.

💕

What if He hadn’t sent Manna for food,

But waited ‘til man proved righteous and good.

💕

What if He hadn’t sent Giants to flight,

If He hadn’t called David to stand up and fight.

💕

What if He hadn’t sent Joshua to scout,

If all those who went said there was no way out.

💕

What if He hadn’t sent people to pray,

Provide for the Prophets, to open the way.

💕

What if He hadn’t sent Jesus to die,

Then where, in God’s world, would stand you and I.

💕

What if He hadn’t resurrected that day,

Come back to earth to show us the way.

💕

And what if He hadn’t called you and I,

But left us to sin, to shame and to die.

💕

But He didn’t leave us, Never will the Word reads.

He stands right beside us, And provides all our needs.

    I think this is one of my favorites! And, ironically, I am “purging” and downsizing some more today and found a coffee mug from the early 1990s that I’ve had but hadn’t seen in almost that long…has this same verse. Lol A sign! Lol

      I love it! I need to do more – after the move! I expect, depending on the size house we get, that we will have several weeks of yard sales!!!! LOL
