Kathryn Search Poet Rhyme

Give God the Credit

GIVE GOD THE CREDIT
Give God the credit for all things good,
Give God the credit, you know you should.
Even though you may create a poem
Or plant a garden or make a home,
It's God who gave the skill to you
In every single thing you do.

You may play a harp with flare,
Or plant and mold with special care.
Perhaps your hands have nursing skills
Or your repair a need fulfills.
No matter what God gives you to do,
Give all the praise to Him--not you.

So, if you want to thank your friends,
Remind them of the love God sends.
Encourage to give thanks to Him,
For He has given skill to them.
God gave us brains, He gave us brawn,
Let's praise His name and not our own.

I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God bless you. Kathryn Search September 29, 2022 at 2:08 PM Thanks, and God bless you too.
