“To Bring Resources In”

My role in life, from Kingdom view,
Is bring resource to help you do
Your work in Christ; to Turbo-boost
Your efforts – obstacles reduce.

First task for me to do is this –
Tell you ’bout the perfect bliss
Of Kingdom-life – why press through rock
Of obstacles which roadways block –

When you can get up on the plain
And skate o’er top, reducing pain,
Increasing pleasure many-fold?
On that approach to life, I’m sold.

What is that layer of “Skating ice”?
Well, “Meaning”, “Spirit”, will suffice
To get you started down that road;
Or “Wisdom”, “Knowledge”, if one holds –

Those with an open hand – indeed
They’re part of it, each fills a need;
Be careful, “Slice is of the pie,
Not all of it” – get that or die.

For we need other views of scene,
From other gifts, and what has been
Perspective they have used in life,
To get to here amidst the strife.

With that resource, I bring to you
A plug for holes in bucket new,
Which stops the drainage of your cash,
And let’s grow up a stable stash.

A bucket with assorted holes
Lets cash escape – the higher goes
The level of resource put in,
The more new holes their flows begin.

So put a plastic bag in pail
To stop-up holes – don’t just assail
The market, giving goods for cash –
Let Kingdom-layer protect your stash.

Now when I bring resource to bear,
Those leakages, which still are there
Don’t matter now, for Kingdom-layer
Like plastic bag, lets wisdom care.

For “No” is key to “Yes” in life;
Both have their place – straight sacrifice
Is foolish; like those holes in pail,
Without the Kingdom-layer, you fail.

Thanks Lord for this.
