We pray earnestly for a job from God
In our hearts we yearn to save the lost
Yet when God calls us where are we?
We ask, was that You who called
me?
Yes, God calls us to pick up the mantle
For a certain work for his kingdom
Promising
a mantle of His power,
Now we choose, accept or deny it.
We ask ourselves was it from God?
How does God move us, we ask others?
Do we get a letter through the mail?
Does a neighbor come sharing
gossip?
Oh! no that is not the way God works.
If we expect God to move us on
With a
physical nudge we can feel,
I am afraid we have a long wait,
Oh! no that is not the way God works.
Some erect a mental protective canopy
Seeking insulation from Spirit urges,
How can God touch such
an ego?
Be not afraid of God, remove your shield.
It could not be God who called me,
Just some mental thoughts of good things,
My creation, yes God, say it was mine,
Then I can be comfortable
in denying.
Oh God, I pray for a discerning soul
So that when You place a mantle on me
I will
not be timid and hide in fear,
Help me to discern and move boldly.

CALLING, CALLING ME
I go into my secret garden
To see what's growing there,
I see the fruit of love calling
Calling, calling me there.
I go into my hidden garden
Peace overcomes me, my spirit,
The chair that sits in the garden.
Calling, calling me there.
I sit down in my secret
garden
Amidst the splendor of the flowers,
It’s like another world is calling
Calling,
calling me there.
While sitting in my hidden garden
I feel the soft breeze around me
The leaves
move in silent concert
Calling, calling me there.
While sitting in my secret garden
My
spirit comes alive in me
Like a hot tub bath it soothes me
Calling, calling me to rest.
Oh,
no, must I leave my garden!
Yet, I inwardly know I must,
God has work for me to do now
Calling,
calling me to work.
