Someone special I met today.
I was out shopping this day, just going my way.
The woman that confronted me in my parking spot was a
surprise to me but in my heart I knew she was sent by thee!
She was a lowly soul, not too young but not very old, one who the Lord did make whole.
Do you know that the Lord puts his people to the test, that we should not be exalted above the rest.
*Jesus said that we will always have the poor but he told us that they are the ones truly blessed.
I was blessed when this black sister came to me; the Lord gave me a sign as he had made me color blind.
Skin color means nothing to him; get it off your mind.
For this sister I do pray, she is rejected by many for her love and good deeds, this is how we see God separate the wheat from the weeds.
Remember, when God sends someone your way help them with their needs, not just with words but with deeds.
I dedicate this poem to my sister and friend Merl.
“God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. Matthew 5:3 NLT.
*The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me. Matthew 26:11 NLT.
The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Psalm 37:23 NLT.
