‘Why I Am Here...’ theprose.com Prompt
I thought I was a servant.
One who responded to any beck and call
Until my character was made real to me,
that I'm not a good one at all
My desire to be kind or good or thoughtful had selfish aims.
Making tallies of all the deeds I've done to make a better name.
Then God began to expose me, revealing all my flaws
Everytime I performed an act of service,
I bumped into a law
My motive for serving was wrong to start
but now through Christ I see
I am here to serve others through Him,
allowing His love to shine through me.
