WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO

I’ve already been born into this worn, corrupt and cruel world; have overcome my childhood dilemma and go on to be a Christ-like girl.

I’ve experienced rejection and have learned how to be alone been encouraged by many a spoken word and uplifted by thousands of spiritual songs.

I’ve repented of my sin and am constantly being filled with His Spirit over and over again, asked God for His forgiveness and strength to get me thru many tests; served my fellow man without asking for nothing in return so that in due time He will reward me with eternal rest.

I’ve loved and honored my parents just like the scriptures have said; been an earthly contributor to the workforce where ever led.

What else is there to do but continue preparing for the coming of Jesus it might come thru sleep that will be ever so sweet, or by the catching away of my body during the rapture in the mid-air to meet.

What else is there to say or what else can be done that hasn’t taken place;

the only thing left is to wait to meet Him face to face.

ANOINT BUT DON’T REQUIRE

Anoint me to speak your word that others might hear; but don’t require me

at Your throne to draw near.

Anoint me to heal all manner of diseases that others might see; don’t require me to pray for my neighbor whose sitting next to me.

Anoint me to sing songs in ways that draw great applause; don’t require my voice be used for praising and worshipping you Lord.

Anoint me to lay hands on people in ways they are in the Spirit slain; don’t require that they be lifted in surrenderance
