"Feeding
Time"
By
Jim
VonSchounmacher, Ph.D.
As I
look across the pasture
The
sun is settling down
Painting
the sky with color
Where
the heavens touch the ground.
The
horses see me standing there
And
run up without restrain
Thinking
I might feed them
Sweet
oats, perhaps some grain.
I watch
them come with majesty
With
power and with grace
I am
humbled by their gentleness
As their
dust blows by my face.
And
then the cats come running
Meowing
with each stride,
Jeremiah
and Banjo start barking
Is there
no place I can hide?
It's
feeding time here at the ranch
And
once again I see
How
GOD,through HIS creations,
Reveals
HIMSELF to me.
HE speaks
to me through them each day
As HE
looks down from above,
Their
faith in me is unwavering
And
fills my heart with love.
But
it's YOUR heart LORD that should be filled
As I
turn to YOU each day,
Returning
love YOU share with me
As with
gratitude I pray.
LORD,
thank YOU for YOUR "Mercy"
As YOU
watch us from afar,
Thank
YOU for the "Gift of Grace"
YOUR
precious "MorningStar."
