When thieves encounter you, they stop stealing and rise up to call you holy. When heartless ones encounter you, they stop being stingy and rise up to call you holy. When people with tempers encounter you, they stop being angry and rise up to call you holy. When the lazy encounter you, they get to work and rise up to call you holy. The whole world will rise up and call you holy someday. And in the meantime, my spirit, body, and soul will continually rise up and call you holy.

Rays of glory glisten from the pages of your Word and bring light to the world. Showers of sparkling water flow through the pages of your Word and bring life to the world.  Roots of truth position themselves under your Word and declare it unmovable to the world. Paths of holiness stretch from cover to cover of your Word and show the way home.  Thank you.
