“Some Act Post Transformation” [#21A] (Matt.8:1-4)
What action is transformative,
It’s time to take initiative –
Take hold of freedom now He’s blown
That obstacle through life you’ve known.It’s just a step, but hard to do,
For comfort lives in point of view
You’ve had while stuck here by the road;
My role right now? To be your goad.You say, “Hey, that’s no role for you,
That’s something which my wife could do,
If she adjusts to me, now fixed,
(If not, my future will be nixed)”.Well no, that is my point today;
Get up, get going on your way,
And she will cheer – you’re back to health;
Next step for all? Increasing wealth!For any work which you might do,
Will up the income due to you;
So grab a shovel, dig in, man,
For life abounds within this land.“But there’s no jobs for us to do”
Oh sure there is – change point of view –
Just cut the cash from work, you’ll see
A hundred jobs arise for thee.Like stick a shovel in the ground,
Then pick up dirt – for that abounds –
In barrow toss, then dig again,
Day after day, through wind and rain.“Now why would I do such a thing?
Sure, I can start – but why begin?”
Because first step is hardest chore,
Once it’s been done – there’s plenty more –And if there’s not, look what you’ve done –
You’ve dug a hole – a hill’s begun;
No “lazy” label’s pinned on you;
And hill will change your point of view.That’s what the pyramids were for –
To ope’ for Pharaoh, heavens door –
Perhaps – but now we gaze and see
Effects of surplus slavery.Whatever change you wish to bring,
Just pick a task – a simple thing
Which “They” allow, act quietly,
And watch it scream, “Hey set me free”.When that is blocked, just shift your act,
And carry on, for it’s a fact
That people like to good appear,
Despite the rot ’neath nice veneer.So act, take action, anything –
Don’t sit around, transform some thing;
For life works best when you see change
In status quo you’ve rearranged.Thanks Lord, for this.
