His List ~

When I wake up in the morning,
before I get out of bed . . .
the plans I’ve made for the day
start dancing in my head.

Do this, do that, and this-that too,
the list goes on and on
the plans I’ve made for the day
begin with the crack of dawn.

Before I arise and get moving,
to do all that I have to do
I reach for my Bible to see if God . . .
has any plans for me too.

As I read through the verses,
my head starts shaking
for all that I have to do . . .
are not of His making.

I put my Bible down,
toss the covers off my bed
I give God my list of this and that
and do what’s on His list instead!

John 15:5
King James Version

“I am the vine, ye are the branches:
He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth
forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.”
