Gratitude 5 Eucharis
I
November 18 is a day of victory
Missionary doing good for Jesus
Defrauded of thousands, "2-week loan"
Finally the courts brought back that cash
My LORD, in His time, shows faithfulness
In Africa, I doubted the system, not His
System of Justice, but man's. Now I bless
II
Richard L. came to visit; "consistent" - you know it
Some writers here have discipline, daily poet - TREE
Flows as leaves (said Belle) or roots, shoots, fruits:
I feel the urge to thank Jesus in public places -
Because there are no secret service Christians ;
Or we ought not be secret agents of Christ Jesus,
But willing to speak truth, our salvation, grace
To all, with humility and boldness, shown in Paul
The greatest early missionary, apostle - in the flesh -
Did not see Jesus, but LIGHT on the Damascus Road
And that unmistakable Voice: You persecute Me
When you touch those who call me LORD, Savior, Friend.
III
Amen
Shalom, shalom, shlaom
