Poem - Listen

Adam had no one except Eve to listen to, 

For he forgot the ever present Help

Cain listened to himself, when 

He marked to slay his own brother

Jacob had his mother Rebecca

Advise him to cunningly grab blessings.

Balaam needed a donkey

To open up its mouth and show the angel

Mary and Joseph chose to believe and  obey

What the angel told them.

So did Elizabeth and Zechariah

Who believed the improbable

Whom do we have, to listen

To admonish, to advise

God is our refuge, our everpresent help

In times of trouble, His word says.

Everyone else around is helpless

And futile and feeble and vain.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet

And a light unto my path.

Keep me from deceitful ways; 

Be gracious to me and teach me your law.

The Word became flesh and 

Made his dwelling among us.

And I will ask the Father, and he will give 

An advocate to help you and 

Be with you forever -the Spirit of truth.

You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

Here is God who is Almighty All Powerful

Immeasurable, Uncontainable

Alpha and Omega, beginning and the end

Willing to help you, advise you, guide you

All we need is to listen to Him

On a regular note, daily basis

That we would live a life

That's according to His perfect plan.
