Just a tree among thousands of trees
Doing the same things over and over everyday
Budding, bracing, shading, shedding
Declaring God’s glory by its mere existence
.
Just a bee among thousands of bees
Doing the same things over and over everyday
Flying, collecting, building, depositing
Declaring God’s glory by its mere existence
.
Just a woman among thousands of women
Doing the same things over and over everyday
Feeding, cleaning, driving, loving
Declaring God’s glory by her mere existence.
.
What if the purpose of life
Is just to live it?
.
To walk with Emmanuel
As we feed, clean, drive, love
Fly, collect, build, deposit
Bud, brace, shade, shed
.
What if I will never be famous
And there is no puzzle piece missing
And you haven’t missed
The one thing you were created to do?
.
What if we have earned our place in this world
Just by being
each day, each breath enough of a
Testimony to the goodness of God?
.
What if the purpose of life
Is just to live it?
