Abraham
the father of all nations
called to sacrifice
his only son Issac
Wasn’t it strange
Naaman the renown Syrian commander
told to bath in Jordan River
instead of cleaner
Abana and Pharpar
Wasn’t it offbeat
Elijah wasn’t sent to Israel
where widows abound
but to Sidon
the widow of Zarephath
Wasn’t it bizarre
Daniel’s three friends
thrown into a blazing
the king’s men were killed
by a raging flame but not the three
Wasn’t it unusual
for David to go to battle
against well-armoured Goliath
with just a sling and a stone
yet he won, scaring away the giant’s men
Wasn’t it weird
that Jesus healed
a blind
mixing saliva with mud
to paste on the eyes
Wasn’t it beyond imagination
for Jesus to tell the servants
to pour water
instead of wine
to keep it from running out
Wasn’t it unbelievable
that God
should send His only Son
to die for our sins
turning us into sons and daughters
Doesn’t it defy our finite minds
instead of punishment
we receive grace and forgiveness
instead of separation
we are reconciled to Him
