"IF YOU HAD A SERVANT!"
©1999 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 5}
If you had a 'servant'
who avoided 'extra' work,
Who also 'complained' a lot
would you think he was a 'jerk'?
Is this how 'we' treat God
as His 'servants' here on earth?
I wonder what He thinks of us
since we've experienced our new birth!
When He gives us 'extra' work
do we run & hide?
Or when our job is 'changed'
do we 'complain' & 'deride'?
Thinking it's not 'great' enough
& falls 'beneath' our class,
And we really don't like to do it
therefore ~our God~ we do harass.
Please stop & 'think' about it
then get on your knees & pray,
Let GOD search your heart
& turn around ~ today.
Serve Christ with a 'willing' heart
'gladly' doing all He desires,
Obeying with ~abandonment~
a 'humble' servant whose on 'fire' ~
FOR GOD!
