“Pros And Cons” (1Cor.12:15-16;Eph.6:10ff;Rom.12:21) [Sun Tsu First Half Re-Write # 7:4]

To armies fighting, pros and cons
Emerge, ’till danger’s come and gone;
That holds in fact for what Sun Tsu
Has twisted from God’s point of view.

He says that expertise has place
In setting danger level – case
In point, in shifting motley crew
To do some task You want us to.

But as I take a second look
At publishing a photo book
Of poetry or, perhaps, prose,
I see some danger comes in those.

In this regard I now can see
Just how this chapter speaks to me –
For minimizing bad effects
Is part of what this task begets.

For this speaks of agility
You have, which passes on through me
As endured stupidity
Amongst the folks You’d have me see.

So Lord, as this progresses now,
Please keep me focused here somehow
Upon Your tasks You’d have me do,
And leave the rest of it for You –

To be assigned as You see fit;
Help me to now let go of it,
See it as Your task all along –
That I to body-life belong.

Thanks Lord for this.
