TRUSTING GOD: THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE

God Won't Ask!!

I read this lovely poem in a magazine....

GOD WON'T ASK



God won't ask what kind of fancy car you drove.
He will ask how many people you took to church who didn't have transportation.



God won't ask the square footage of your house.
He will ask how many people you helped who didn't have a house.



God won't ask how many fancy clothes you had in your closet.
He'll ask how many of these clothes you gave to the Salvation Army.



God won't ask what social class you were in.
He'll ask what kind of "class" you displayed.



God won't ask how many material possessions you had.
He'll ask whether those material possessions dictated your life.



God won't ask what you highest salary was.
He'll ask if you trampled over any people to obtain that salary.



God won't ask how much overtime you worked.
He'll ask if you worked overtime for your family.


God won't ask how many promotions you received.
He'll ask what you did to promote others.

God won't ask what your job title was.
He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.

God won't ask how many promotions you took to chase a dollar bill.
He'll ask how many promotions you refused to advance your family's quality of life.

God won't ask how many degrees you had.
He'll ask how many people you thanked for helping you get those degrees.

God won't ask what your parents did to help you.
He'll ask what you did to help your parents.

God won't ask how many friends you had.
He'll ask how many people you were a friend to.

God won't ask what you did to protect your rights.
He'll ask what you did to protect the right of others.

God won't ask how many times you told the truth.
He'll ask how many times you told a lie.

GOD WON'T ASK ABOUT THE COLOR OF YOUR SKIN.
HE WILL ASK ABOUT THE COLOR OF YOUR HEART.

...... I am touched by this! How about you??

Something to think about:

ALL OF US WILL STAND IN FRONT OF GOD SOMEDAY AND EVERYTHING WE DID, SAID, THOUGHT, WILL ALL COME TO LIGHT.

    God is one, but himself has chosen so meant different forms. I wanna pay my respect and shower all my love in every form that comes to my attention. And the blessings and rewards from each form I shower my love on. (",")
