Support Them For God's Sake

Support Them for God's Sake

This is inspired by poem "Sow"
and dedicated to Tom Kesting 
Whose poems are easy to be digesting.

Someone stated to sow small seed long ago
Like each word of the Lord began to grow
Heard what seed through God started to say
Son surely will come again in future one day.

Seed slowly sipped water beneath the sod
His effort to grow was only seen by God
With God's help each seed grows and grows
Limit and extent of God's power no one knows.

To reliable reaper God did bestow a seed to sow
He shook it to and fro and soon started to grow
And some day maybe it might turn into a weed
God still will fulfil weed's each want and need.

God, please take this seed that is still Thine
And give it great health with bread and wine
That your Holy Son Jesus does represent
Who only your goodness and love always meant.

Whether unsightly, uncomely or undernourished
Weak, sickly small or did become discouraged
Let us love and support them for God's sake
And one day with Him to heaven He will take.

In all of our bodies, God a soul did so And do you know how that I know Because the Bible has told me so And on me a soul He did bestow. Jim Horn
