Insight

Luke 19:39-40 

39 And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”

40 But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”

 

 

Grace

 

Is spiritual insight given to be shared everywhere?

Could it be a gift at times only for oneself?

If all things would be known to men everywhere

What would the world be like ... can you tell?

 

If everyone had riches ... would not all be poor?

If everyone was happy ... where would sorrow be?

If all were fulfilled ... could grief be like before?

If all matured in Christ ... where would true children be?

 

If I had been the only one filled to the brim with sin

Would not the Cross of Calvary still have its purpose?

If I am the only one crying for forgiveness deep within

Would the Lord not be there to lead me to repentance?

 

If I was dead like a block of stone ... could I be resurrected?

If I was in the grave all alone ... could I be perfected?

If I was not here at all ... could I be brought back to life?

Could I then hear Salvation’s call and respond without strife?
