Look Up And Count The Stars

October 28, 2014 By Mary Hill Leave a Comment

Genesis 15:5
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.

 

Look Up
We look to the skies and don’t number the stars.

We look to God and forget His promises.
We look but do not see.
We do not take the Lord seriously
We do not seek Him and His promises,
His challenges and fall short
Of what He has in store for us
All because we will not dare to look up and count the stars.
We will not dare to believe in His word
In His promises, His love.
What are you failing to look for today
Look up and count your stars on your horizon
Because His grace is unboundless.
His love infinite and His promises
irrevocable.

This post is for day 23 in both the 31 Days online writing challenge started by home blogger, Myquillyn Smith (The Nester) and Kate Motaung’s Five Minute Friday and her 31-Day Five Minute Writing Challenge. And joining these hops:
