If God Held His Breath

 IF   GOD  Held  His BREATH  ~  David Clure

 

 

What if   God   decided to hold His breath ;
held back that precious  gift
which we call life ?

 

What if God decided
to  hold His breath ? 

 

Tit for tat .
What if we gave, not as
we've got, but as we wished we'd had ? 



For that is how 
God treats you (and me)
with such, such  overflowing
generosity . 



Next time I find, I am inclined, 
to hold back?
Lord please remind me of this:
What if God had decided
to hold His breath?

 

 

 

Copyright 2019  David Clure from his  new  Book

 

*  This little poem came from my reflection of a verse in my Bible, during my quiet time before the Lord, this morning.
(JOB 34:14,15)  Through Jesus Christ, we may listen to our Creator speak to us, everyday, anywhere, forever.
