Looking at self

John 3:16 

16 For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

 

All rhyme and reason have in common ... is a couple of “R’s”

Could there be tears ... if it was not for the eyes

Would there be a cloud ... without the sky to support it?

Aren’t we mostly formed inside ... when our helplessness cries?

 

We look at self mostly ... in comparison with others

We don’t need a mirror ... unless we can see another live

We only need precaution ... to keep all others safe

and always should receive ... if we only live to give

 

Pouring in and flowing out ... like the Sea of Galilee

Sustaining life for many ... to support the ones God loves

The only place still known ... where completely free

a man walked on the water ... with the blessings from above.
