Easter Eve

[IceWizard]

It's that time of year when we remember what has been given so freely to us, yet most don't even know what they are missing...

I'd like to share this poem I have had for quite sometime now, but still so true...


Unaware We Pass HIM by

On life's busy thoroughfares 
We meet with ANGELS unawares
But we are too busy to listen or hear
Too busy to sense that God is near
Too busy to stop and recognize
The grief that lies in another's eyes
Too busy to offer to help or share
Too busy to sympathize or care
Too busy to do the GOOD THINGS we should
Telling ourselves we would if we could ...
But life is too swift and the pace is too great
And we dare not pause for we might be late
For our next appointment which means so much
We are willing to brush off the Saviour's touch
And we tell ourselves there will come a day
We will have more time to pause on our way ...
But before we know it"Life's sun has set"
And we've passed the Saviour but never met
For hurrying along life's thoroughfare
We passed Him by and remained unaware
That within the VERY SIGHT OF OUR EYE
UNNOTICED, THE SON OF GOD PASSED BY

Helen Steiner Rice


Don't pass Him by, 
remember what He gave to us and honor Him this Easter....

Ice, that poem is so very sweet and true.
Bless you for sharing.  While reading it for the third time, I get feelings that I can relate to.  My faith has been
extremely shaken over the last few years and I don't like having those kind of feelings.  The poem has lines in it that seem directed right at me!
Amen and Happy Easter

Charon and OR - Happy Easter!
