MOSES AND I
–
When God called Moses to lead
His people from Egyptian greed…
The stutterer balked
Though with God he balked,
But with ample encouragement agreed.
–
His stuttering grew less and less,
As he led the people addressed…
Their needs with shouts
Anger and put outs,
Cleaning up when they’d messed!
–
I, too had speech impediments,
And negative self contents…
Like him, my bother
Talked for me like no other,
I grew up and learned God is immense!
–
Like him my Mother’s desire
To have another boy fired…
Up the certainty
That she would have me,
Working so I wouldn’t expire.
–
Our missions were a long time coming,
Constant questioning what we were assuming…
Key to identities
Linked to One Most Holy,
With a long time for ministry grooming!
–
Who were we when called,
Servants of the Living God…
Finding our way
From the sheep pen okay,
Although methods seemed to others odd.
–
Moses was greater I know,
But we both learned to develop real slow…
Our ministries
To the God who sees,
Found God’s never buffaloed!
