Examine Your Heart

Examine Your Heart

Would you worship Me if your cupboard was bare
and not one person seemed to care?
Would you raise your hands to honor Me
if your possessions were destroyed suddenly?
Can words of praise flow from your lips
if your boss handed you a little pink slip?
Will you stay confident and content
if you had to live in a flimsy tent?
What if all your friends deserted you
would I be enough to get you thru?
If your hard earned money was totally gone
what then would you depend upon?
If all you've known should fall apart
would you still believe with all your heart?
Examine yourself before you speak...
Be sure it's ONLY ME you seek!

*Something the Lord constantly reminds me to do!!

About the Poet
Christian since 1973, widowed in 2007, but by the divine appt. of God, I married a wonderful, godly widower in Oct. 2010. Three grown, married sons and eight grandchildren. My first love is Jesus who inspires my pen, for apart from Him I can do nothing! I desire to honor the Lord and edify readers thru poetry He inspires.
