The Man of God

He wakes up very early when everyone else is asleep,
He goes downstairs so silently, he doesn't make a peep.
On his knees he talks to God, "Thank you for my children and my wife,
but thank you most especially for my very blest life."
As he opens up his Bible he thinks how great Sunday will be.
He turns the tear-stained pages, "this old book is the key."
"Lord speak to me that I may preach to my flock on how to act,
I want to show them what is wrong and what the Bible says is fact."
We should be thankful for these men of God and what they do each day.
Take some time right now to pray, these God fearing men are the way.

Great job, Ashley! Glad to see you're now a Polliwog kid!
That was a very nicely written poem and exactly true. We need to pray for our men of God. And because of you, I just did! Thank you!
