Poetry
You present your body as a living sacrifice,
Acceptable to God in following His advice;
So be not conforming here unto this world,
Rather transformed into His plan unfurled;
Renewing your mind and spirit to prove,
What is good and perfect to God behoove;
Through His grace that been freely given,
To every man a chance to enter Heaven;
Never thinking to be higher than another,
Rather thinking in peace with each other;
Of a measure of faith that God has dealt,
For space in your heart that He has dwelt.
A measure of faith that God gives to you,
Of each and every day helps you through;
Filling your heart with a sense of peace,
A renewing spirit giving life a new lease;
For this faith from God not from this earth,
From a place of having much more worth;
A measure of faith is your gift from God,
Giving a power over whatever is flawed.

I'm certainly thankful that the Lord has given me my very own measure of faith. A mustard seed sized measure is all it takes! Now, if we as a Christian family can all learn to put our measures together. Imagine what we could do with all that!
