If Life Gives Me A Candy And I Drop On The Ground It Picks Up Extraneous Matter And Eating It Is Not Thought Sound! I Now Have To Spend Money To Get Another Candy Piece And It Just Does Not Taste Like The Discarded Piece: "Here! You Have It! It's Not My Flavor! I'll Get Another Piece!" When God Gives Me A Blessing I Can Be Certain Sure That Even If I Accidentally Drop It I Can Still Utilize It Straight Off The Floor! God's Blessings Collect No Besmirchments! God's Blessings Smells Not Of Yesterday And I Don't Have Any Need To Spend A Red-head Penny Nor Beg Someone To Give Me Any! Worldly Blessings Come With High Costs Including The One That Turns Hearts Into Jars Of Cold Frost Willing To Beg Borrow and Cheat Willing To Savage Mommy Daddy, Gran and Baby To Put A Pair Of Vile-looking Snakeskin Shoes On Seriously Wrong-Walking Feet! God's Blessings Come With Heaven's Long View Able To Support The Recipients Plus Another One Or Two! God's Blessing Blesses The Wise One Who Knows How To Care And Bless Also Another Out Of Their God-given Share! BUT ... Do Not Cast Your Blessings Before The Grunting Sow For It Will Turn And Eat You Whether Filled, Satisfied Or Just For The Factor Called: "Wow!" Only God Can Show You Truly How To Share What You Have Got! So ... Don't Give To Who Has Already Give To He Who Has Not!
Do we Know What happens When The Shepherds are The Sheep, and The Sheep act like Goats?! Do we Want to Know What happens When Goats are Shepherds Pompasetting and Wearing Pretty Judas Coats? Do we Want to Know What happens When Goats Lead Sheep, and Shepherds Bleat and Even Eat Meat? Did you Know that When a Sheep Eats Meat He has Got Fangs and Hangs Around with That Wicked Satan? Weeellllll ... I Met a Shepherd A Shepherd of The Sheep Who was Not The Owner And who Willingly Cut Truth's Corners! He hung out with Fiends - those Creatures so Mean And Spoke often ... it seems Of Meat Succulent and Lean Having been Fed on The Green Where Cooling Waters Stream. I Listened with Interest, and Wondered Then I Grew Flabbergasted As with Malice True Sheep were Pounded And The Death-Sirens Sounded And Lambs were Grounded Down with The Spurious Truth that was Curious to Boot Giving The Shepherd The Loot To Buy Expensive Suits To Appear on The Air Pretending to Give a Care About Where The Souls of The Poor The Innocent The Seeking Would Spend Eternity While Caviar he is Eating And Unrighteous Riches he is Reaping! That Shepherd Looked at My Face Walked Around And Stood a Pace From My Body And - too Jovially - Explained:
"Boy's Howdy!
Lord, Love a Duck!
Details, Details!
A Story I Tell
To the People - No Hell!
Get to the Beach
Pick up a Shell
And Listen to them Chiming Bells!"
"Details! Details!
Men Falter and Fail
I "Comfort" them and I Sail
And they go to Sinners' Jail
And Cry and Rail
At Jesus - not Me!"
"I Work for a Fee!
I Entertain for an Allowance!
My Fabled Secretary is called Florence
And we Met in Torrance
Introduced by Lawrence
The Handsome
The Dark
Who Encouraged our Romance -
I Never Stood a Chance
And now we Dance ... with The Devil!"
"There is No Turning Back
For that Would Mean Lack and
I Tell you The Fact
Lack is Something I Don't Choose to Pack!"
I Listened! In Fact I Wished He'd Take it Back That He was just Giving me Flack But, Alas, and Alack This Steward Was a Coward Who Preached Faith But didn't Know The Lord And his Sworn Task Was to Pull The Gold Cord Of The Seeking Soul Looking for The Word of The Lord! His Mission was to Feed Self To Lay Aside Treasure on The Shelf To Live Large In Good Health While Accumulating Worldly Wealth! He Didn't Seem To Care or Try to Understand That God Almighty Is NOT a Man That All That He Has Said He Will Do He Will Do! ... HE WILL DO! "Don't YOU Read your Bible? Don't YOU Know Right from Wrong? Don't YOU Know Jesus Christ is Coming Down? Don't YOU Understand that The Trumpet Will Indeed Sound? Don't YOU Believe that we ALL have a Judgment Round And Every Human Must Give An Account However Wherever he is Found?!" "Don't YOU Believe in God? Don't YOU Fear God!" He Stiffened ... I Raised My Eyebrow. He Turned ... I Tilted My Head. He Opened his Mouth as if to ... I Held My Breath. He Walked ... away ... breathing audibly ... I Bowed My Head and Prayed.
I Am Blessed! I don't Speak of it But If God was "Mean" to Me Everybody would Hear about it! I Am Blessed! I don't Speak of it But If My Pantry was Bare I would be Saying: "I Always Knew That God Does Not Care!" I Am Blessed! I don't Speak of it But If Illness was in my Door Everybody would be Hearing The "Why Me?!" Furor! Amazingly, He Who Blesses Me Does Not Need My Speech To Provide Me with My Blessings! He Provides Because His Holy Love Abides And He is My Guardian and My Guide And The Holy Angels are Round About, and at My Side, and The Holy Spirit in Me Resides! I Don't Need to Talk About My Blessings But I - From Now On - Will For He who Provides Comforts Me and Stills All My Anxiety About The Cup I Fill And Reminds Me Of His Rest and Peace And Points Me Lovingly To The Day When I Shall Have Sweet, Sweet, Sweet Relief!
