The Benefits of God

Give praise to God! Call upon Him. The joy is this - that you can call upon Him. While it is day, before the darkening of days, sing to Him. Laud his deeds! Indeed, his deeds are worthy of praise. He allows this - our praise. Give praise to God! Have you considered the wonder of His works? Consider them now. Give praise to God! Glory Hallelujah His name! His name, Jesus, is above all names. His fame spreads and He’s victorious. Seek Him while it is still day. Seek God and His strength. His face shines glory forever. Who forgives all your sins, heals all your diseases, redeems your life, is good, kind, tender with mercy, satisfies, is pleasant, renews your youth? Vengeance is His. God will make things right. Our time on earth is short. Long is eternity. Choose wisely. The benefits of God are rich. The devil pays no dividends - his desserts are like dust and gravel, whipped cream topped. It’s not gummy worms that fill your bowl. It is not brave to eat this stuff. Choose wisely. Can you see the day when you stroll, place to place. Each one brings more pleasure than the last. O the friends, the company will last, the joy, the laughter, streets of pure gold, your loneliness cured, your boredom relieved, O child of the King! Sing of His wonder, sing of His benefits, sing with all the saints! 6/7/2022

What a beautiful prayer like poem what a delight to read and how true that life is short. The devil still hangs around like a hyena, he scavenges for left overs, he looks and acts devil like, I love all animals but a hyena i dislike, he is disliked amongst animals as well, a loner always alone. love hugs, Jennifer. Superb write dear Kim.

Great reminder, Kim. Too many think that 'benefits' are the sole province of the H.R. Department...
