TEARS IN A BOTTLE COLLECTION
Caryl Ramsdale, American Poet
Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. I KINGS 18:37 KJV

MAKE ME A MIRACLE TOO
to Ken Casey

Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
Were cast into a furnace of fire;
The Lord joined them there and all four danced
To music from His heavenly choir.
Make me a miracle too...oh Lord,
Make me a miracle, too;
Create a beautiful masterpiece,
A great work of art...by You!
Twelve disciples cried out from a ship
In the midst of a storm on the sea;
The Lord walked on water to save them,
He climbed on board and the tempest ceased.
Make me a miracle too...oh Lord,
Make me a miracle, too:
Create a beautiful masterpiece,
A great work of art...by You!

A bright light from heaven captured Paul
Because Paul persecuted Christians;
The Lord touched his eyes so he could see,
Then sent Paul on a Christian mission.

The scene of the painting
"Forgiven"
is Mt.Calvary.

A  despairing man  has a mallet in one hand  and a large spike  in the other. Both symbolize that each of
us is responsible for  Christ's  death
on the cross. Jesus Christ is holding up this broken man.  At Christ's feet are broken chains  representing the sin that was  overcome at  Calvary. There is a trace of blood on Christ's hands,  and in the place where  His
blood has fallen, lilies have grown.
