A DESIRE TO DO GOOD














A DESIRE TO DO GOOD


I have a DESIRE
To DO GOOD every day
Of my life


As I am SURE
You all do too


And it is easy to
BE OVERWHELMED and
IMPRESSED with so many
Of you=
And what you ACTUALLY DO
With your lives


“Learn to do GOOD” Isaiah 1:17


I have been around people
Who GIVE so much
Of themselves UNSELFISHLY=
I see so much KINDNESS
In some of you


And so much KINDNESS
When it is easy
To hold a grudge


A DESIRE TO DO GOOD=
I see so much goodness
In some people


The CARETAKERS of the family members
Who give so much
Of themselves=
So much ENDLESSLY


The endless PATIENCE
Of a MOTHER who
Has a child with a handicap


The counter clerks and workers
(health care workers=and first responders)
Who take so much ABUSE
When it is UNWARRANTED


SO MUCH GOOD
In people
EVEN in these trying times


A desire to DO GOOD
A desire to BE GOOD


“He replied=
'You are talking
Like a foolish woman=
Shall we accept
GOOD from God
And not trouble?'


In all this
Job did not sin
In what he said” Job 2:10


“Trust in the Lord
AND DO GOOD
Dwell in the land
And enjoy safe pasture” Psalm 37:3


“A cheerful heart
IS GOOD MEDICINE
But a crushed spirit
Dries up the bones” Proverbs 17:22


These times
Are crying out for GOOD PEOPLE=
These times
Are crying out
For people
And their DESIRE TO DO GOOD


Keep the FAITH=
I see so much good
In so MANY people=
I see people who
WANT to be NEXT to God


“........For God loves
A cheerful giver


And God is able
To bless you abundantly


So that in all things
At all times-
Having all that you need
You will abound
IN EVERY GOOD WORK” 2 Corinthians 9:7-8


Keep the faith in God
Keep the FAITH IN PEOPLE


The DESIRE to DO GOOD
In this world
Is GREATER than you think


In Jesus' name=and in the name of our FOREVER GOOD GOD the FATHER!
