I go through my day
quite methodically,
first accomplish
task A;
then move on to B.
Some look on with admiration
of things that
I’ve done.
How they ask?
Well,
I’m quite selfish
for one!
For if B moves to A,
or if added a task C?
The control of
my life
lacks its security,
and in my
reassembling that coveted haste,
the selfish wits that I keep
demand a taste.
This deception quickly spreads,
my mind becomes dim.
For I consistently forget
to simply give will to Him.
With that one request,
disorder diffuses;
and the illusion of control,
well, one always loses.
When we seek His help
in any endeavor –
It is not us, but Him
who completes
selfless tasks for another.
