Greet Me Once Again

 

A friend gave me a precious gift just the other day.

He reached out to his Father when he knelt to pray.

The angels cheered at hearing a lost soul was coming home.

Right into his Savior’s grace no more battles to face alone.

 

What wonderful pleasures & gifts the Lord has in store,

To give to his precious child returning to HIM once more.

God kept a lose hold on him knowing one day he’d return.

Into His awaiting arms and be very eager to grow & learn.

 

God also knew that this child had a disillusioned life.

Bombarded down with trials and untold painful strife.

So God waited patiently & sat by on his Heavenly throne.

Just waiting for his prodigal son to once again come home.

 

One day in distress God’s child called out in HIS name.

“Oh my Father in Heaven I want to come home again.”

“I finally understand & realize, I can’t make it on my own.”

 “I’m so very weary Lord, I’m sick and I’m so badly worn.”

 

“So welcome me my Father even though I have sinned.”

“Forgive my transgressions Father, and greet me once again.”

 

Written by,

Bonnie May

I admire your faith, Bonnie. It seems to be be a bedrock in your life. We need community and faith again in the world!

In the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, the Star Keeper up in heaven says to Billy Bigelow, the itinerant carousel barker, 'Look, your daughter's down there, Billy, and she's unhappy!'

The good folks of the town were making her unhappy because her father was a thief.

I like to think Heaven's redress is waiting for all maligned and hard done by people on this earth.

best wishes, kenny

This is beautiful Bonnie, an old highschool friend and I were talking about this the other day. I was reminding her that the Lord forgives, just as she had showed me the Lords love and helped me to grow in faith in my early Christian walk.
In Christs Love

the story of the richness of grace never pales, Bonnie, and you have given us yet another such reason to rejoice with you, the cloud of heavenly witnesses and with the grateful recipient. Beautifully rhymed, thank you. xx

Bonnie,

Prayer works: I've seen its evidence many, many times. Well done. He hears and understands when we can't express it except through groanings and tears. Well done.
