On A Lighter Note - That Look On The Holy Spirit's Face When.....

 

You sent to us a loving guide
To teach us to recall
The words and lessons that You shared
While here, among us all.
 
The Holy Spirit walks with me,
I hear him every day,
With nudges to keep me on track
Or lend help on my way.
 
Too many times I know I fail
To properly obey,
Then end up off the path once more,
Stumbling in my dismay.
 
I’ve heard a few “I told you so’s”
And learned the harder way
That, had I listened when He spoke,
It would have made my day.
 
He has to have more than mere grace
To put up, patiently,
With wayward souls who don’t listen.
You know, people like me.
 
I picture the Holy Spirit
With this look of dismay
In that, despite clear instructions,
I’ve chosen my own way.
 
I can just see the frustration,
That look upon His face,
When He sees me, yet one more time,
Failing to share some grace.
 
Yet, for all the annoyance caused,
And doubtless, heavy sighs,
He still keeps herding His wild child
Who’s precious in His eyes.
 
John 14:26
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
