Giving Godly Grace

"Why be human? Why not Godly? Let's emulate Him" 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Give few grains of rice to birds, a handful can feed many
In serving selflessly spend your day, all are a part of God though many
Verily God is everywhere, everything his manifestation
In helping others never shirk, you get back what is given
Never be negative, isn't everything created by Him
Graciously give for you are transient holder, all belongs to Him

Glorious God loves us unconditionally, has given so much free
Often we get egoistic, thinking all belongs to me
Delusion makes us forget God is the giver
Loss can happen any moment, we may become receiver
Yearn to share all you have, never be a hoarder

Grateful for the opportunity to serve, become a giving freak
Reap benefits of joy and peace, will get in abundance all you seek
Always smile, be positive and happy, when faith is firm nothing is bleak
Carefully lead your life, be good to all, don't sin
Everlasting bliss and joy will be yours if you treat all as kin
