How we as Followers
Model our days
Speaks more loudly than
Words we display.
❤️
Are we frazzled, exhausted
Too tired to listen?
No wonder the anger and fury
Ready to pounce once stricken.
❤️
Other times we respond with
Roles we have played for years
Relationships we held
Responsibilities we assumed.
❤️
On one hand, we claim to follow
The great Prince of Peace
Our actions betray us when
Triggered and never at ease.
❤️
We cherish and proclaim
Eternal Commandments of Old
Let’s not be selective, picking
Those most easy to uphold.
❤️
You gave us an Answer
Facing a world full of strife
When we model Your Ways
Even when hard, in daily life.
❤️
Your Word, our Guide to
All You desire for our Best
Commands, not suggests
A weekly Day of blessed Sabbath
Rest.
