Do you have
signs and wonders
following you in your life?
You should. He told us this would be the sign
that we would see
signs and wonders.
I think we’re looking
For signs like a
Withered hand restored
or rain in a desert,
a rushing river drying up instantly.
And those we see.
But there are others.
Like an ex-husband
Showing up, to upset
and derail me every time
a new wonderful success
is bursting on the scene for me.
It’s a sign!
Normally we
may not notice, but
by the help of
the Holy Spirit we are able
to see more clearly, the
sign. And then we know.
You have a relative who
Every time God is moving
you to something else,
here she comes with
an emergency.
It’s one that means
you have to go over
to her house
Sit with her, comfort her,
go to a hospital with her
or a courtroom.
Then you have to see her
home. More family has arrived. Friends have
Bought food and drink.
Someone has put on music.
There’s a hustle and a bustle.
You can’t seem to find the
Strength to pick up your
Bag & keys & head
For the door.
Recognize the sign. This
Has been sent to
Disable you
You have work to do
For the Lord.
(well, maybe this caring for my family is part of It…you whine)
You know what your
Work is.
For it, you need rest,
Peace & quiet.
But in this romper room
Of family, there is no way
You can think or be.
You should leave, but you
can’t; you’re the close relative,
the brother, the sister,
the pastor, the friend, the
…stop!
It’s a sign!
It’s a sign and wonder
If they give me that writing
job based on that
Website I did.
There’s no way that’s a good example of my abilities.
But they hired me anyway.
A sign and wonder!
