All In a Day's Calling

First, settle your differences 
    with those whom you love
  Pay any debts you owe
    down here or above

  Greet everyone you see
    with a cheerful 'How-do'
  and a smile from your heart
    that's 'genuine you'

  Make sure to call those
    who live far away
  who've grown remote, but
    helped you 'back in the day'

  Give a few bucks
    to the homeless you see
  Pray to God their souls
    from indigence be free

  Don't neglect to remove trash
    that bars people's way
  If you don't do it now
    it won't get done today

  Then when you're so tired
    you need to nap for an hour
  Pray your heart out to God
    Ask Him for more power ...

With the number of teeth I've lost, I can't 'put the bite' on anyone! ~ Not to fear!

Godly thoughts you have written my friend. Now if we could all do what you so shared with us. This one is a favorite. I want to always be reminded. Words that come from a tender Heart of love for their fellow man. God bless you Gershon for sharing. Really made my day reading your words of love...
