“Be Ready”

 

There is never a warning

There is never a set time

When the Lord will ask you to do something

That makes no sense in your mind

 

It will hit you out of nowhere

It will grab you like nothing else

It will scare you to death

But, oh the resulting wealth

 

A life may be saved

A sickness may be healed

God always has His reasons

No matter how we may feel

 

It may be to ask Him into your heart

Wow what a feeling that was

I remember saying “Surely not me. Why?”

And the answer was simply “Because”

 

There are always results from God’s children’s deeds

We may never even see the reward in our lifetime

We may just experience a simply feeling of joy

While praying at night before bedtime

 

You may be embarrassed by what is asked

Someone may even consider you a jerk

But, rest assured that you will know

When the Lord calls you to do His work
