The Makings of a Masterpiece

Today- a very momentous occasion! God uses the ordinaryto fulfill the extra-ordinary!Things like moments, willing hands and feet,Things like little prayers that wing from our hearts to God! Each moment we use to the glory of Godturns a diamond in the rough to a gem of eternal value! So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God. My moments have me seeing red these day! Apple and tomato red, that is! 😅Thank-you Lord! The top layer of this heap was turned into salsa, bbq sauce and tomato soup yesterday! Today applesaucewhile the remaining tomatoes redden up a bit more! Today is Time’s freshest release(The makings of a masterpieceIf we with honour weigh the sumOf what each moment will become) Like little diamonds in the roughGod tips His treasure trove of loveAs moments mete the means wherebyDuty and privilege reply This is no common enterpriseMelting night’s shadows from yon skiesLet’s meet each charge of God’s commandWith thankful heart and willing hand For the secret to success liesIn what we seek to recognizeOf moments, as they glint and spillLike diamonds gleaming with God’s will How precious is the sum of them!Then let’s not waste one precious gemBut, pursue with each moment-leaseThe making of a masterpiece Janet Martin
