O Little Grasshopper

O Little Grasshopper

A Poem by Melinda McQueen
"

Isaiah 40:22

"

So tiny and low,

Slowly crawling along.

You think you are all alone,

Doing things on your own.

 

O little grasshopper, you feel so big,

Even as the dirt you dig.

You roam the world,

Seeking the biggest pearl.

 

You believe only what you see

And rely on your own meager strength.

You desire power,

Yet you cower.

 

O little grasshopper, if you would simply look beyond yourself,

You shall find your sustaining help.

For God who is strong

Will fill your heart with song.

 

Seek the King -- your King,

And to His glory you shall sing.
Roam through His Word

And make Him your pearl -- your sword.

 

O little grasshopper, open your heart and let Christ in,

And let Him show you just how big He is.

 Crawl into the heart of the One who knows

How to make you whole.
