“S.M.A.R.T Goals or D.U.M.B.? ” (Gal.2:20) [Sun Tsu First Half Re-Write – General]
We know about the S.M.A.R.T. goal thing –
To me that’s part that Jesus brings –
Specific, yes, indeed that’s true,
And Measurable, it’s that way too.Achievable (to say the least),
And Realistic (’gainst the “beast”);
If anything can be for Real
(’Gainst he who kills, destroys, and steals).And Time-defined (God only knows
This part, but then for all of those
Who choose to buy in, it’s okay –
Eternity plays out this way).For me, my goals are “D.U.M.B.” indeed –
They’re Doable by You in Me,
While sitting with my Bum in chair
’Till in the end , I am prepared”.So Lord, that is much nicer fit –
For one thing I do well, is sit
With butt ensconced within a chair –
To this, no other work compares!I hunch it never has an end –
Tool-making so new parts will blend
Into existing ways of man
(And woman), fits Creator’s plan.“Let Me be smart, I’m best at that,
And you’re so dumb – in past, you sat
Around in life to write and chat
With folks, as satisfaction’s cat –“I’ll let you carry on this way;
Lots you can do each working day;
Relax, kick back, your day has come –
In Me, from here, we’ll have some fun.”Okay – but what I also hear,
Is sitting ’round (it’s more than clear),
Means I must tend to action part
In daylight hours and after dark –For sedentary life of mine,
If not to end my days confined
To lock-down mode, I’d better keep
Myself, as well, up on my feet.“And watch what grub you chow down, Stu,
’Till other folks look after you.
As you engage (in Me), the foe –
Be wise, as off to war, you go.”Okay Lord, thanks for this.
