Chitter Chatter

We can talk up a storm,
say many pleasing things
and use eloquent phrases
to add a little bling,
but words are just noise
without actions that follow,
like a clanging cymbal
or barrel that's hollow!
The Lord is not impressed
with our chitter chatter
and unless fruit is evident
verbiage doesn't matter.
A doer of God's word
is what we should be,
not just a talker
but a fruit bearing tree!

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.
