“St. Patty’s Day – 2018”

The time has come again today
To drive the snakes – too long they’ve played
In territory they thought theirs,
But wasn’t – time to make repairs.

Not just in family of ours,
But in this district – satan’s powers
Too long have ruined lives ’round here;
A point, O Lord, You’ve made quite clear.

Their game of “sniff”, and “leader-kill”
Of “multi-crosses on that hill”
That those who call for life amidst
This group can die – and not to be missed.

Well, maybe not in this fair land,
But Kingdom rules, you understand –
And in that space some still abide,
With Jesus’ presence at their side.

Lord, I am hearing – “Spread the word” –
For what you’ve said I’ve understood –
In Me and others roundabout –
Snakes got to go – of that, no doubt.”

Lord, I hear Your economy
Is what’s around for all to see;
No secret, we just want the fruit
From Adam’s tree – his exit route.

But not in our much better times,
When You appear, “Hey, Kingdom’s Mine –
Climb up; join in; relax a spell –
Step up away from twirling hell.

Lord, this is cool – show us today
How we can follow in Your way,
As we let go of the knowing all;
Instead, responded to Kingdom’s call.

Thanks Lord for this.
