BY THE VERSE REFLECTIONS

A man’s gift maketh room for him, and
bringeth him before great men.
Proverbs 18:16

THE MANTLE

Born of the soul and indelibly etched upon the heart,
are stirred the sleeping skills lying within
by a predestined call of anointing
only God’s spirit can impart.

He stretches forth our wings of faith
causing us to fly with a vision sired face
passed every thread of doubt’s mental lace.

Inflaming our confidence to see so clear
as his loving touch empowers us
to rise above our inner talents simpler tier
till we shine and are seen with greater cheer
than comes from any friend or other peer.

THE PRAYER

Oh lord grant me eyes to see
and a heart to truly be
adorned to faithful use the gifts
you have placed in me.
