If only I had touched His robe or washed His dusty feet. Had followed Him from town to town and brought Him food to eat. If only I had been alive when Jesus walked and taught, to hear His voice and see His smile and miracles He wrought. If only I had felt the love emitting from His soul, that wrapped afflicted ones about and somehow made them whole. I know He's still with us today/ I talk to Him in prayer, but still, I wish I'd seen those times. If only I'd been there!

Oh, Betty, How I've wished this many times over! Ellie A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |

How many times I wished I'd have been there myself. It brings to mind a scripture of "Blessed are those that do not see, and yet believe." Because there were those who did see, and still didn't believe. Still some yet only followed because of the miracles He performed. You certainly have a wonderful gift of writing Betty! I'm glad you here to share it with us. ![]() <*\\\>< |

Beautiful! Sometimes I wonder about what it would have been like, to see Jesus in person and talk to him face-to-face. Well done! |
