Serve Fresh Bread Daily (3) Poem by Michael P. Johnson

So child of God don’t play the fool
Only the true are Jesus’ tool
Communicate Light to hearts of stone
Not the wisdom of flesh and bone

Through their shepherd, sheep can lose out
Spiritual void will lead to doubt
Tender young plants must daily feed
Alone God’s Dove can meet the need –1Ki.17: 6

Power can turn a shepherd’s head
And take them, from where truth has led
Where food from God would feed the flock
Priests when proud are a stumbling block

True, ministers; will fast and pray
They’ll hear what Jesus has to say
The Spirit transforms with quiet groans
Priests once blocks, into stepping stones

So wait on God, receive fresh bread
Then freely serve and raise the dead
God’s sheep will never leave or stray
When thus well fed, His flock will stay –Jer.23: 4

But sheep ignored on barren ground –1Co.14: 26
Roam oft to priest who’ll more; confound
To priests who neither fast or pray
Who stop the flow and bar the way –Mt.23: 13

Neglect may come; from priests who care!
Have their Elders views they don’t share?
Should not Elders, seek Jesus’ views?
O are they scared their jobs to lose?

Children of God who read this rhyme
Who think it all a waste of time
Perhaps through Christ you’ll change your view
For surely this was meant for you…
