These are my notes from today’s sermon – they aren’t very long this time…
Elders should be shepherd’s,
Deacons should be servants.
Each of the church’s leaders,
Should have characteristic bents.
The saints or “laity” are ministers
Within the body of the church.
For opportunities to thus work,
It is their duty to search.
The church of God is a household
Consisting of many a family.
Church shouldn’t be individualistic,
Though many, thus, don’t see.
The character of a mature Christian
Should reflect that of our Lord.
Th threads of His character
Should be wrapped round us like a cord.
“Where does the Word say that?”
Is a question we must ask.
In our LORD’s Holy Word,
We ought to joyfully bask.
“Iron sharpens iron”
This is a truth we can’t deny.
This truth can work both good and ill
When our actions with each other fly.
To the KING be all the glory!
Amen and well done. :D
