Great Words from Great Men

Here is a poem written by a good friend and mentor:

Gifts
God gave us gifts every one
He gave them through hs only Son
He gave our conscience as a guide
In case our gifts we try to hide.
The gifts he gave to you and me
Don't cost a thing, they are free
There is no treasure here on earth
That we can find to match their worth
We use our gifts in various ways
To do God's will all our days
John does one thing, Jack another
But God's plan is we work together
In working together we communicate
And so our lives we dedicate
To God's great plan to save our seats
Not only ours God's entire fold
But if our conscience we have seared
Don't use our gifts then we have filled
Our souls with Satan's evil thoughts
Not only ours, but those Christ bought.
~ Howard Singleton
