We all wish to be thought of in a positive way. But as this poem highlights, the most important desire should be hearing Jesus say at the finish line, “Well done my good and faithful servant”.
Desire to be thought of
In a positive way
But most important
Follow the Way today.
Long for the hope
And the patience needed;
Appreciative
That love interceded.
Be driven by an
Uplifted life
To amazing heights
Where there is no strife.
So toward the end
You can rejoice
In being a helper
And hearing Jesus’ voice.
Well done my servant
For your faith has vaulted
You beyond any fears
Into glory undaunted.
