Two coins came into my hand today
One beautiful, shining bright
The other tarnished and worn out
And no longer a pretty sight.
Holding the coins the Lord spoke to me
And said, as I observed the two,
“Look very carefully at them both
The worn coin is just like you.”
“You feel you are not much use anymore
For you are battered and bruised
Yet you have only become like this
Because you have long been used.”
“Although the two coins look different
It really would be a shame
To throw the old, worn-out one away
Because actually their value’s the same.”
“You have value and are precious to me
Not for anything you may do
But because I formed you for myself
And I love you through and through.”
Thankyou Lord for using coins to show
That I have worth and value for you
Then help me Lord to continue to be
And do what you want me to do.
