TO GIVE GLORY TO GOD
I don't know about you=
But SOMETIMES I feel
Like I am working
IN VAIN=for the souls
Of God the FATHER
And I am SURE=
Jesus felt that way
When he reached HIS END
Giving it all=just to
GIVE GLORY TO GOD
When you are WORKING
For God=sometimes it is
EASY to think
You are working in VAIN=
Because you really
CANNOT measure the results
“Though I thought
I had toiled in VAIN
And for nothing
Uselessly=spent my strength=
Yet MY REWARD
Is with the Lord=
My recompense
Is with my God” Isaiah 49:4
I am sure=Jesus felt
That way=in the end
He COULDN'T SEE
All the souls he would SAVE
Including me and you
I am SURE a lot
Of priests and ministers=feel that way
BOTH men and women
Working for=working to
GIVE GLORY TO GOD
“The heavens
Declare the GLORY OF GOD=
The skies proclaim
The WORK
Of his hands” Psalm 19:1
“And they were
Calling to one another'
'Holy-holy-holy=is the Lord Almighty-
The whole earth
Is FULL OF HIS GLORY'” Isaiah 6:3
“........for all have sinned
And fall short
Of the GLORY OF GOD
And all are justified freely
By his grace=
Through the redemption
That came by Jesus Christ” Romans 3:23-24
How about you? Could yo
See the REWARDS of your profession?
Probably=most things
In this world ARE MEASURED
But working for GOD'S GLORY
Cannot be measured=ONLY
In love=for love is not quantifiable
THANK GOD for that
WORKING to
GIVE GLORY to God=
Working for his rewards alone
“Whoever is kind
To the poor=
Lends to the Lord
And he will REWARD THEM
For what they have done” Proverbs 19:17
“If=what has been built
Survives=the builder
Will receive a REWARD” 1 Corinthians 3:14
WE WORK for the Lord-
The PAY isn't that great=
But the RETIREMENT PLAN
Is out of this world
The work we do
In this world=
CANNOT be measured
But it is meant to
GIVE GLORY TO GOD
In Jesus' name=and in the name of our ALWAYS REWARDING FATHER
