Best Level Deed For God
Your deed of service is not hidden in God’s sight
Since He knows your utmost with your best level might
He sees your trust's lever revel in His light
And doesn’t need to peep from His lofty height.
In passing His labor-test of divine radar rays
You must regard what His Scripture tenet relays…
His commendation “wow” you seek in all your ways
Along with the favor of Dad and Mom that pays!
With God’s nod won, now don truth raiment
Pray like Hannah in the Bible; call “Abba Father” with contentment
Declare: “no evil live on” as you stop pots that brew hatred’s detriment
Be a reward drawer by His grace ton, not pride’s element.
While life on God is laid, dial faith’s tip ere pit of false claims come out
Snip pins of greed; snap pans of love with cheer-shout
Use virtue strap parts; from sin’s trap, part to reach victory route…
Thus, to do well in the ministry* ward, draw near the Lord, devoid of doubt.
*1Timothy 1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry.
