How
Wondrously
We Are Made!
We Are Made!
The Bible
says the tongue is our smallest part,
with it we
can pray and uplift our brothers.
Better
still, with the tongue we praise God,
and worship
Him above all others!
Yes, our
tongue is such a little thing
to give
us so much trouble...
just
when we think it can't get worse...
another
word makes our troubles,double!
Now our
eyes are very wondrous...
for
with them,our loved ones we can see.
Without
our eyes we'd soon find out just
how
very dark our world could be!
Yes,
our eyes are wondrous things,
but if
we choose to look on evil to see
the
things of this world, then they will
lead us
to live a life as hopeless as can be!
Consider the ears...them being
attached to each side of our head.
Without
them we'd live in silence...
that's
a state I'd truly dread!
Yes,
our ears are very conveniently
placed,
so we can hear all that being said.
If we
choose to listen to the wrong voices,
all
kinds of evil will fall upon our heads!
Our
hands are...well, very handy
...and
that I can't deny.
For at
least a thousand things
each
day on them I do rely!
How
true it is that our hands are handy!
Without
them it would be hard to get by,
but if
we reach for harmful things,
someday
we'll have great cause to cry.
We also
have a pair of feet...
usually
resting on the floor.
Without
them how very hard it
would
be
to even get out the door!
Our
feet are indeed wonderful to have
to help
us go about this world to explore.
Some
places they can take us...well, hopefully,
we soon
learn not to go there, anymore!
Our
bodies consist of many parts,
and all
of them miraculously made.
God
must have thought so, too, for after
creating us, He rested in the shade!
Yes,
our bodies are the Temple of God,
but
when we choose to do evil and trade
that
temple for the house of the devil...a lesser
God
would be sorry that we'd ever been made!
I thank
our Heavenly Father above
for
creating us in such a way,
that we
can see and taste, feel and walk about
this
place He made for us to temporarily stay!
