Poetry
Lord, make me willing,
to go that extra mile.
Let me put away my frown,
and while I go wear a smile.
These little interruptions,
that come into my day.
Are the things You created,
so I can go about Your way.
My time is not so precious,
if it is not spent on You.
So help me to be more willing,
to do what You want me to do.
Let me put off today,
that which is self-serving.
I want to be Your servant,
please make me more than willing.
So next time the phone rings,
and it's someone who needs me.
Let me go that extra mile,
and I promise to just smile!

Great rhythm in the stanzas. Lovely message that all could take to heart. Thanks for the nice thoughts to focus on throughout the day. God Bless You
Amen! I needed that. Sometimes I'm so selfish with my time. Thanks for the reminder that it should be doing things that's the LORD's will.
