Whisper: You are as the lost coin, You are beautiful and Mine.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Like the Hidden Penny
Like the penny hidden away,
Not valued high …not on display,
Rather plain, and tarnished with time,
Common, like many others in design.
Hidden… among other discarded things
But its destiny was to be in the presence of the King.
Without effort it travels from one drawer to the next.
For quite awhile no one really paid attention to it.
It was so small and dirtied with the world’s touch;
No one but God would pick it up.
But what a wonderful change took place,
When God touched it with His grace.
The world still may wonder what it is they see;
For on the outside, it is not at all what the world wants it to be.
But it has traveled from the rubbish into the high place to stay.
The world was wrong; it is to be on display.
It has been polished to become,
An object that represents the good work of God’s Son,
I am now held in high honor only because of God’s
good work in me.
