STRESS IT

Until you have something good to say
Don’t say it!
Concerning a need to pray
Pray it!
Upon finding something good to give
Give it!
Since there is always a reason to live
Live it!
Without desires in your heart
You can’t share it!
Out of the change you could spare
Spare it!
Concerning dreams deep inside
Unearth it!
Despite feeling unworthy
You’re worth it!
When you think you’re undeserving
You deserve it!
It it means the world to you
Preserve it!
If you desperately need a friend
Be one!
If you are alone and depressed
Seek one!
When you are tired and confused
Sleep on it!
If your emotions rule
Weep on it!
When you hear gossip about anyone
Don’t repeat it!
If it’s all you have left
Don’t deplete it!
When the gossip is about you
Ignore it!
If you find it repugnant
Abhor it!
With knowledge gained from God’s word
Teach it!
With wisdom gained from God’s word
Preach it!
When your mind races
Control it!
When a loved one is sad
Console it!
If something needs attention
Address it!
When something needs to be said
Express it!
If you’re tired of quitting
Complete it!
When negative thoughts usher in
Defeat it!
When someone needs a blessing
Bless it!
To get the point across
I stress it!
