Looking Out My Window
By Kenneth L.
Birks
Looking out
my window, God’s wonders are seen in the
skies.
With
expectations of a new day, sunrise is
seen as it rises.
What will
this day bring that wraps me in the arms
of His love?
As the sun
rises, eyes are blinded by its
brightness above.
Gazing upon
Its beauty, new revelation awakens with
His love.
Looking out
my window, the sun’s warmth is felt, so
bright.
Squirrels
playing joyfully with no thought nor
care of fright.
In the beauty
of His created ones, the hand of God is
seen.
As squirrels
and sparrows play and fly freely, His
care is seen.
More than
those who chirp and play, in us, He
cares and delights.
Looking out
my window, sadness is seen on those who
pass by.
Seeing
homeless walk by, I wonder where they
sleep tonight.
As the sun
fades, it gives way to darkness and cold
with bite.
I pray, the
provider supplies what's needed as the
sun fades away.
As birds and
squirrels who play and chirp are
provided for, so I pray.
Looking out
my window, mothers with children
joyfully stroll by.
Rejoicing in
the miracles that’ve come forth, they
sing lullaby.
Gazing upon
their beauty, their hearts fill with
wonder.
Aware of the
Father’s faithfulness, cups fill with
gratefulness.
Taking note
of the beauty and wonder of God, they
give praise.
Looking out
my window, stray cats on the porch bask
in the sunlight.
Sleeping
contentedly, I notice they’re well fed,
though they’ve no home.
The
neighborhood their home, they disappear
into the darkness of night.
Giving
thanks, praise is given for the
significance of a stray cat.
In awareness,
I realize I’m more valuable and
significant in His sight.
Looking out
my window, for all that’s seen, I’m
filled with amazement.
Seeing the
Father’s handiwork, I rejoice in what’s
made for enjoyment.
Looking with
care and concern over all that’s
conceived, peace liberates.
As faith
arises, His love washes over me with all
that He’s achieved.
Wrapped in
the tender love of His arms and care,
the moment is enjoyed.
May God
bless you richly, today, as you seek to
find all that’s been hidden away for
your personal discovery.
