The Calling

I'm Just An Old Waitress , 
What Else Would I Be ? 
" My Calling ~ Though Simple 
      Was Planned Just For Me ! 

My Childhood Was Awesome , 
My Memories . . . Sublime 
And , If I Just Could ? 
I Would Go Back In Time . 
 

My Parents Were Blessings , 
From Heaven Above 
They Took Us To Church 
And Taught Us "God's LOVE . 

I'd  Take Care Of  "Grandpa" , 
As He Grew Quite ill 
And Carry Him Water . . . 
So He'd Take His Pill . 

Those Years Passed Too Quickly , 
I Grew Up , And Wed 
Now Too Many Loved Ones , 
Are Sadly ,    Now Dead . 
 

With Kids Of My Own , 
"That Calling's"  Required ! 
At Least As  A  MOM , 
No Fear , You'll Get Fired ! 
 

That  "Calling"    To  "Serve" , 
     Has Come In Quite Handy ! 
From Breakfast ~ To ~ BedTime , 
They're My Sugar & Candy ! 

Along Lifes' Pathway , 
I  HAD  To Find Work .
And The "Pay~Check" I Earned ,
Was Just One More Perk ! 

The Friends That I've Met , 
And The Customers I Feed .
I Have Found In  "My Calling" , 
That Place . . . I'm In Need ! 
 

Not Everyones'  "CALLING" , 
Is Always Far Up . 
Sometimes . . .  It's Just "Serving", 
A Smile    And A Cup !

The " BIBLE " Has Taught Us , 
 In "Serving" Our LORD 
We Also  "Serve"  Others , 
That's How "Crowns" Are Stored !
 

My  "Calling" , Though Simple , 
GOD  Gave It To Me 
I'm Just An Old Waitress . 
WHAT  ELSE  WOULD  I  BE  ?
 

II Timothy 1:9 
" It Is He Who Saved Us And Chose Us For His 
Holy Work, Not Because We Deserved It But 
Because That Was His Plan Long Before The 
World Began - To Show His Love And Kindness 
To Us Through CHRIST "

So for all you ladies out there who have been told differently, this one is for you !!!
Remember there is NOTHING you can't do if you put your mind to it.
Just being a Mom taking care of kids and a family
is probably the biggest job one can do
and that goes beyond 9 to 5.
And we all know Moms can be pretty Awesome!
