The Master Now Is Calling

Last week I was invited to come to an evening service at a nearby Reunion.  I went, thinking just as I left the house that I needed to grab my notebook, so I did.  Just after the scripture reading and before the sermon, I penned this poem...and it turned out to be a sermon on service.  Go figure.  :)

The Master now is calling,
"Will you go for Me today?
Is there someone who will answer,
Who will walk the narrow way?

"Come now and labor quickly,
For My field is ripe and white.
Many there are in the darkness;
Please, will someone take My light?

"You must love as I have loved,
You must give your all for Me.
My forgiveness is so near them,
And My love is poured out free.

"My Spirit will be with you;
I shall bless you from on high.
My counsel is at ready;
In Me thy blessings lie."

The Master now is calling,
"Who will go for Me today?
Who will show My love to others,
And help them walk the narrow way?"
