A Reflection In Time

Humbly Irrelevant · 2020-09-11T10:06:09Z

Friends: This was written in my youth just after I was born-again. There were many times when I put myself in harms way without knowing that my salvation was not assured. I was (am) grateful that God protected me from my youthful stupidity and allowed me to come to Jesus and confront my unsaved predicament. Only through His Grace and His Mercy will I be on the right-side of Eternity. Hallelujah!!! I was driving the curves of a lonely mountain, In a hurry to get to the other side, When my eyes caught a vision of shocking despair, As my car jumped the road and went into a slide. The wheels started spinning and traction was scarce, As my heart increased an extra beat, In an instant my tires abandoned the ground, And my car was thrust some two-thousand feet. I braced myself as the carriage caught air, And off the pine-ridged crest it flew, The forces of gravity exerted their might, “Good Lord, I’m dying – and nothing I can do!” I know my life has been occasionally clouded, Always racing around with my gears stuck in high, But I never anticipated this desperate end, “Please Lord – I’m just too young to die!” There are so many things I’ve yet to achieve, And so many people I’ve yet to repay, I have so many goals and ambitions ahead, “Oh Lord – allow me just one more day?” An eternity elapsed as the impact grew near, And every vision of life passed my eyes, When suddenly my thoughts were overtaken, By a Thundering Voice that transcended the skies. The Words that resounded were calm and serene, Gently easing my soul from all of its fears, I was apprised that my life was not yet over, The Lord heard the pleas from my youthful years. My time on Earth had not yet concluded, Affirmed from above by that beckoning call, I would now be given one last chance, And then I awoke from this fateful fall. I was covered in sweat as I opened my eyes, My car was parked safely within the garage, How scary it would have been to be unprepared, To face the reality of this eternity-altering mirage. “Lord, thank you for allowing me one day longer, So as to spread Your Light to my fellow man, I am forever saved by Your amazing Grace, And will attempt to accomplish Thy Will for as long as I can”. Your pal, Humbly
