The Calling

God has not called me to be a possessor of things.
God has not called me to a purveyor of the world's offerings.
God has not called me to be a preacher of society's mantra.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son"
Because none of what the world offers can save us.
And through Him I know...

God has called me to possess mercy and justice.
God has called me to be a sower of Love and Truth.
God has called me to be a preacher of the message of Jesus Christ.

So I will lay aside my possessions so that I may possess mercy and justice.
I will put away the things this world offers and offer to the world the Love and Truth of my Saviour.
I will turn a dear ear to the voices of selfishness and destruction and instead listen to the beautiful
Truth He speaks to my soul.
I will be still and know that He is God and God alone.
I will give my heart to Jesus alone.
