Convenience

Sorry if the Lord may inconvenience you,
Maybe a fiery furnace may turn you blue.
Perhaps it is too dangerous in the lion’s den.
Or washing in the Dirty River of Jorden.
Nevertheless, we enjoy our comfort zones.
We relax with ease minus the moans.
We recline to watch our favorite game,
But nudity on T.V. may cause us shame.
Bottoms up with those mixed drinks at the founts,
And we love mouthwatering meals at Restaurants.
But, thank the Lord for His colossal triumph,
as we rely on His grace with coaxing comfort.
We are created to enjoy God’s Great Creation,
To see tall mountains and roaring oceans, and
watch the colorful red flowers waving in motion.
We have got it made in the shade, but
do not get greedy with that ace of spades.
Rest with ease, there’s medicine for the sneeze.
We must not worry when the head is hoary.
Le us Eat, drink, be merry, and enjoy life fully!
But remember thy Creator, or you will be sorry.
