Are YOU Doing Your Good Works



YOU have probably asked yourself, what are Good Works, well me too
Jesus gave Us examples, so I will point them out for YOU
I was hungry and YOU gave Me food, does this sound familiar
I was thirsty and YOU gave Me drink, a glass of water
I was a stranger and YOU took Me in, giving Me shelter
I was naked and YOU clothed Me, which made Me feel much better
I was sick and YOU visited Me, thus lifting My Spirit
I was in prison and YOU came to Me, lifting My Spirit
When YOU do this, for one of the least of My Brethren, YOU see
Assuredly, I say to YOU, that YOU have done it to Me
And YOU did so without expecting anything in return
Not for recognition, yet pleasing God, your only concern
Good things YOU do for others, from the kindness of your own heart
A few examples of things, which set Children of God apart
I’m not saying We are perfect, nor do We always do right
Our battle against sin, is honestly, a choice by choice fight
Believers are held to a higher standard, to how We live
Because We are to be Jesus’ Light, others watch how We live
As a living example, for a Yet-To-Be-Believer
YOU may be the reason, they choose to become a Believer
For on The Day of Judgment, when We stand before Christ Jesus
He will ask about Our Good Works, yes, He will ask each of Us
He will separate Us, goats on His Left, His Sheep on His Right
It shall be such a hard decision, and a glorious sight
As YOU may have guessed, goats are the unbelievers of the World
His Sheep refers to Believers, in Jesus Christ, of the World
But don’t think for a second, Believers will be off the hook
Just because Our names have been written, in Jesus’ Holy Book
Jesus will still point out, each mistake, each missed opportunity
And it shall be embarrassing, at least it will be for me
For unbelievers, He will point out, each chance they had to choose
Jesus Christ will remind them, that He gave them hundreds of clues
The least of which, is The Holy Bible, which they could have read
Not to mention run-ins with Believers, which they may have dread
Jesus Christ did warn Us, that We may have entertained Angels
Does this thought make YOU, drop what you’re doing, and grab your Bibles
Here’s a thought, which I’ll place on your mind, directly in your head
God is watching every choice YOU make, now YOU can go to bed
Doing Good Works should come out of a desire to please Our God
For there is but One and Only One, The Lord Almighty God
Jesus Christ is His One and Only Son, Our Lord and Savior
                          Look to God and Jesus Christ, for your Eternal Life answer
