1 Peter 2:9

9 But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. 

You are royal priests,a holy nation, God’s very own possession. 

As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, 

for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.

 

 

The calling of most is so trivial

that the purpose of Life passes by

Without recognition and unintentional

wasting days and … wondering why?

 

So if calling and knowing is vital

to understand the direction to go

Why then live a life of denial

like the calling you hear is a hoax?

 

If the voice you hear is convincing

To take care of yourself and your own

then the call that you're probably hearing

Is your flesh justifying what you've sown

 

But when the time comes for reaping

the things you have sown for your own

Responsibility for treasure in your keeping

will classify you … a friend or foe

 

A friend of Jesus our Savior

or a foe for all things He stands for

Just watching and hoping our behavior

fits through God's desire to the core

 

If in all things we're pleasing to Him

and all treasure He gave us to share

with everyone He sends our direction

for the opportunity for us to care

 

Than we truly found our calling

Each others burdens to bear

To help and encourage the falling

To dutiful love … and to dare

 

To stand out and be faith-fully numbered

with the few and committed whose fare

is to share all they have with the needy

to be with Christ … Eternally there
