A Poem from Ruth Graham

"It isn't your gold or silver,
your talents great or small,your voice, or your gift of drawing,
or the crowd you go with at all:
it isn't your friends or pastimes,
your looks or your clothes so gay;
it isn't your home or family,
or even the things you say;
it isn't your choice of amusements,
it isn't the life you lead,
it isn't the things you prize the most,
or the books you like to read;no, it isn't the things you have, dear,
or the things you like to do,
the Master is searching deeper...
He seeks not yours, but you.

It's your heart that Jesus longs for;
your will to be made His own
with self on the cross forever,
and Jesus alone on the throne."
~Ruth Bell Graham
