Carpenter and The Cracks

Carpenter And The Cracks

Walking through the house, wood creaking under my feet,
Looking down, I seen cracks in the floor, where the boards use to meet.
So much dirt and grit stuck between them, too stubborn to be cleaned,
Not sure what to do about it , entirely too much work it seemed.
I wanted to eliminate this problem, so I knew I had to call on one who knew the facts,
So with very little effort, I called a carpenter, to come and mend the cracks.
He tore it all up, and started again, when he finished, the floor was completely redone,
There wasn’t any creaking or cracks to be found, he had mended each one.
Then I thought about our hearts, with the hurt and brokenness that this world causes,
How many times we just try to deal with and hide it, causing life many pauses.
If we would just call on the carpenter , Jesus, who has the facts, and let Him in,
He would tear it up, heal the hurt, remove the pain and wash away all sin.
  Let Jesus come into your heart today my friend,  please don’t hesitate,
He’ll mend the cracks, clean the dirt and grit, friend don’t wait!
