Mission of a Visionary Vision of a Missionary

Written by Sister Mariella

Hey! I spoke to the dawn in numberless syllables Hai ! I muttered all the prayers to the morning glory High above the heavens His glory Highlands and lowlands praise His name. In the wings of prayer I took my flight For the day had just dawned as I knelt in prayer To the God of heaven,  I entrusted all that I would do on that day Trusting in His providence and presence that was sure. There came my students with lowly steps and lovely hearts Then came my colleagues one and all There came my helpers male and female Then parents, well-wishers, neighbours and so on There came pretty youth who passed away from the School Then came on a mission workers and worshippers There came the aged, the sick, the lonely Then came those seeking a job or willing to render their service. Then one by one departed and went to their own world Leaving me behind in my little room That was my abode for the rest of the day and night To examine my conscience and evaluate my  day. Then  ……. Yes…..then…. Slowly and sweetly I heard the voice Of all those who met with me during the day And passed my way that day ……. For all that I spoke and for all that I did Did they respond – “This is the Word of the Lord………..” ? “This is the deed of the Lord………...” ? Why wonder? When Jesus and His disciples moved and lived… Whatever they spoke and did….. When passed on in  written word to generation to generation All that was read and listened All responded – “ This is the word of the Lord”. If so,  be  not our words and deeds …..be,  the word of the Lord ?
