Imagine my heartache when I saw his hand a bloody mess. Just a few moments before I was happily talking to one of my managers about things that really don't matter. Just the week before I had spent patting my team and myself on the back for the awesome job that we were (I was) doing. But, here I stood helpless in a small little room packed with first aid supplies; a room that just the week before I had boasted was full of dust because we never used it. We were going to be the safest manufacturing facility on the face of the Earth; but it all came crashing down in one instant! How could he...? Why didn't we...? How could this...? These questions were running through my mind as I thought about the situation. Other questions ran through my mind like what was going to happen to this man and his family. How could I let this happen under my watch...
But...
One verse kept running through my mind...Romans 8:28...
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
After meditating on these words and thinking about all these questions, I wrote the following words:
Precious and Wonderful
As darkness closes in every side
When living here seems to be in vain
As our enemies are approaching
These are the times Your beauty shines through!
We love you Lord for your beauty shines in our lives
You have brought light to our darkness
You are a precious and wonderful Savior!
You are our precious and wonderful Lord!
We are wonderfully made by You Lord!
Yet marred because of iniquity
We struggle in our weakness
Yet in all this Your beauty shines through!
We love you Lord for your beauty shines in our lives
You have brought light to our darkness
You are a precious and wonderful Savior!
You are our precious and wonderful Lord!
You know us and our doings perfectly
You know what is best for your children
Hard trials You bring for our good
In all this Your beauty shines through!
We love you Lord for your beauty shines in our lives
You have brought light to our darkness
You are a precious and wonderful Savior!
You are our precious and wonderful Lord!
I hope you find Him to be Precious and Wonderful!
By the way, the person who was hurt should make a near full recovery! Again,
I hope you find Him to be Precious and Wonderful!
