When something is a Godsend
It certainly comes unexpectedly…
It’s a timely and most needed thing
Where a miracle we see.
When the Father sent us Jesus
It was totally unexpected,
Because the people wanted a political leader
And thus Jesus was rejected.
God could have sent a Politician
With awesome power and might…
To restore affiliations
And to bring much needed justice to light.
He could have sent a Businessman
Who would have helped us economically;
With inspired wisdom for our financial dealings
Where poverty we wouldn’t see.
He could have sent a Scientist
A well respected person indeed,
Who would discover wondrous explorations
Where his reputation could be seen.
He could have sent an Educator
To feed our mind great things;
Along with every humanistic way
With head knowledge this so brings.
In effect Jesus came to be all the above
But in a spiritual way instead,
When our bankrupt soul was made rich indeed
When it’s Spirit led.
He was indeed our Educator
To teach God’s precious word…
Where all glory and all honour
Belong only to Jesus Christ our Lord.
His scientific aspects encapsulate
All of God’s creation;
Where every atom points to God
Without any hesitation.
Political powers do indeed crumble
Along with all their self-glory,
But Christ’s policies are eternally forever
And all part of the Father’s story.
God chose a mere carpenter
To build what is required;
To restore our soul and shelve our sins
Where our spirit is inspired.
God’s wisdom chose humility
Particularly when Christ was crucified;
To highlight the importance of a humble spirit
And to not be elevated in man’s sight.
Jesus was a Godsend
And it’s Whom we all ultimately need;
So our soul is reconciled to God
When His word our spirit feeds.
The greatest need is spiritual
And not all temporary things…
Because the condition of our soul is paramount
When salvation it so brings.
