Believers Should Know Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Little effort it takes to wish.
For something another has.
Not to really want it.
But thought easier to get.
Like acceptance and approval.
To be part of the 'in crowd'.
And not on the outside.
Looking on from a distance.
Hoping that day comes,
The Sun shines down...
Exclusively beaming,
Upon those found to spotlight...
Such a prestige to acquire.
Flaunted around.
All over town.
However...
Efforts made to endeavor,
May take time...
For something wanted,
With patience and tolerance.
And kept faith not to doubt.
Even though,
We all face those days to feel...
God will notice,
What we do much quicker.
If we stopped our activities.
With a demanding of God,
To say...
'God?
If I am here to obey You.
To do Your will.
And faithfully stay that way.
Wassup with all these obstacles?
Get rid of them.
Now!
To allow YOUR 'will',
For me to fulfill! '

And...
If that doesn't get,
Your efforts to endeavor,
To have God notice quicker.
Than ever before.
Fall immediately,
Down on your knees.
Begging of God for forgiveness.
Hoping God will understand,
A sudden and temporary...
Loss of mind.
Believers should know,
This happening may occur...
From time to time!
