All Things Will Fall into Place
Read: Romans 8:26-28
I happened upon a
hidden stream
and sat down on the
bank to think.
The water was so
clean and pure, it seemed as a mirror,
a reflection of my
life.
The water rushing to
the sea
as birth and infancy
is to age and death
How soon came my
silvered hair.
Good God there is so
much to know
and so little time
to find out true insight,
to know for sure
that one's values are meaningful
and have purpose.
This, Lord, has
escaped my feeble grasp.
The stream has
showed me this, and more...
some of which I did
not like.
But maybe that's
what life is all about,
a never ending
search by inquisitive minds
concerned with the
order of things.
And if this be true,
then I will accept the challenge,
knowing that, in the
end,
All things will fall
into place.
Written by Glenn DeLodder and spoken at the funeral of his father, Frank DeLodder, April 4, 1991
