Go and Grow and Glow


Image result for images for Matthew 5:16 

Don’t wait till you are ready
To do the master’s bidding,
Start from the moment you are aware
That you are spiritually living.

We have all been saved to serve
If in fact we are really saved
And from the moment we’re born again
There’s a change in how we behave.

The light is switched on to go
From then we begin to grow
And while at times it may be fast or slow
Our light is set up to glow.

Brighter and brighter it will beam
As we do the Master’s will
And the more we go the more it’ll glow
And we will be growing still.

Our light is never switched to off
It cannot possibly be,
The Master’s the one that switched it on
For the world around to see.

That’s what service truly is,
It is really about being available,
The Lord hath need of all of us
And He ensures that we are able.

It is a full time service
As long as you’ve been made alive
And with the Holy Spirit’s indwelling
That service will always thrive.

As humans it will sometimes lag
As our bodies become tired and weak
But God will give the strength to go on
If it is His purpose that we seek.

Service at home and service at church
Service everywhere you go,
That’s what believers are called to do
So do God’s service now you know.
