Alive!

 1 John 4:16 "God is love." 

     God's love is shown in all of creation.  God said, "Let there be light:and there was light."  God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters...and it was so."  God said, "Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place...and it was so."  God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind...and it was so."  God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years...and it was so."  And God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so."  God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness...and it was so."  
     From all that God did and does, "Behold, it is very good."  He is in it all yesterday, today and tomorrow. 


         Alive and Here
Christ is in the atmosphere.
Living here!
Always near!
A breathe yesterday, today, tomorrow;
A joy covering life's sorrow.
He is alive!
In Him, I thrive.
A rustle, a quiet voice waiting,
   controlling the universe.
In Him, my sins are reversed.  
Christ is watching, protecting;
   Three in One - connecting;
   cleansing, redeeming, healing;
My fate continually sealing.
Christ is like the mist,
 a shadow in my midst;
 a moist drop of dew,
 refreshing, making anew.
Oh, He is alive!
 Hear Him and thrive.
He is a touch, a feel, a whispering nudge;
  loving, thou my final judge.
He is a smell, a taste, a budding flower;
What awesome power!
Christ is a heartbeat, the very soul;
  a guiding hand, making whole.
Jesus Christ is in the atmosphere.
Always here!
Always near!
