Can these bones live?


Amidst the shadows, Brittle Bones Shatter Beneath the slightest motion from a statue's pose. In the valley of death we stand Surrounded by the inevitable. "Can these bones live?" The Lord asked me. Only You Know Oh sovereign Lord. From the dust His breath brought the bones life. Then Flesh Appeared On the bones and they came to life. For He alone is the source of life. His breath brings us life, yet we still doubt His word? What More Remains? In His sovereign plan we can only await.
