His Assignment

He wants you to leave the streets alone.
He wants you to give up on smoking.
He wants to change your life.
God has given you a wife.
And has told and showed me and you ,
What to do and equipped us,
Way before we were born.
He wants us to witness to those whose hearts are torn,
That suffer from addiction,
 That hold grudges and hatred.
He wants to make our lives a movie,
For  only His glory. 
When we do our assignment, that only we can do.
He loves you and me and I love you.
I’m not perfect and you helped in ways,
That I never thought I could be helped,
And I really had problems with you a stranger,
Sharing my wealth.
God sent you life ,
So that I could finally be a full-time wife.
And that you could finally lead a home,
Because you are strong,
And many envy you.
People too feel the same way about me,
But I love you Rodney.
And I pray that before you and I leave this earth.
That we do together what God assigned us to do,
Because our life stories have a lot worth,
And can give many souls rebirth.
