A Wonderful World


My little girl's heart inside looks at life so simply

as it is so very sensitive,

that I forget that I am a 60 year old woman.

My dad was like that.

His favorite song was

"A WONDERFUL WORLD"

that looks at the world so simply

for where the colors of the trees, flowers and the sky

lassos your heart in a way that

you have to thank GOD for

what A WONDERFUL WORLD.

And then the sky may get cloudy and grey

and then you forget the colors

that once where,

but are they really gone?

I want to see PERFECTION all the time.

I expect PERFECTION all the time,

but a PERFECT EXPECTATION

that is not found in a sky or a tree or a flower,

but in the hearts of all.

The same PERFECTION

that GOD so desired from the very beginning

when HE created the sky, the trees and the flowers

and said it was all good,

and even said the man & the woman were also so good.

Oh what A WONDERFUL WORLD GOD created,

until it wasn't.

BUT GOD never stopped trying to bring

the PERFECT world back,

giving all HIS humans chance after chance to return to HIM

so that the world would be PERFECT

for where all HIS humans will be filled with

HIS PEACE

HIS JOY

HIS HOPE

HIS LOVE

so that we all will live in

PERFECTION

where

PEACE on earth has finally come to all

that broke through the dark night sky

shedding an everlasting LIGHT

that brought JOY back into mankind~

"Suddenly, GOD’S angel stood among them and GOD'S glory blazed around them. They were terrified. The angel said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here to announce a great and joyful event that is meant for everybody, worldwide: A SAVIOR has just been born in David’s town,

a SAVIOR who is Messiah and Master" (Luke 2:9-10)

PERFECTION

where HOPE can finally be touched

in an innocent PERFECT little BABY.

Oh what A WONDERFUL WORLD it is.

PERFECTION was birthed on earth for one and for all.

Oh this simple little girl's heart that occupies this 60 year old woman

wants everyone to live in HIS PERFECTION.

What if PERFECTION became a reality for one & all,

for all to embrace our

JESUS who isn't complicated.

As JESUS didn't come to mess up this world

but to restore it back to the way GOD created it be~

for everyone to live IN

the PERFECT PEACE

that transcends all understanding

because

HE is the

PERFECT LOVE

that embraces one & all

with no questions asked

because

OUR FATHER who art in heaven

is OURS.

ONE GOD. ONE JESUS.

ONE who fits every person.

JESUS makes our world WONDERFUL.

So I thank my dad

whose childlike heart craved the simplicity in the complicated,

as that he would stop and would be so still

to breathe in the

PEACE

JOY

HOPE

&

LOVE

that

he would embrace with a big smile as he would look beyond the complicated

and see GOD'S PERFECTION

and claim in it as he sang

"WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD" (listen to the song below)

*Join tomorrow on our 24 Day Journey to Christmas, WHO IS THIS BABY advent devotional series, as we embrace THE BABY who came from RICHES to where our RAGS so that HE would embrace us with HIS RICHES that are THE PERFECTION that we all need*
