JUST a LITTLE

​JUST a LITTLE

Just a little donkey who refused to obey --

Then that animal spoke. He saved his rider that same day.

Just a little cord, hung down outside a wall --

Helped spies to escape, before a city's great fall.

Just a little stone in a shepherd boy's hand,

Flying from a sling, killed a giant of a man.

Just a little servant girl told her master's wife,

What a man could do have a better life.

Just a little maiden unknown on the earth -- 

God had chosen her to bring a special birth.

Just a little rooster crowed one early day -- 

Caused a man to cry – bitterly he did pray.

Just a little needle - things shown around a bed -- 

Clothes sewn for others – someone raised from the dead.

Just a little action, to wash away our sins,

Obeying God's commandments

To show our love.

Amen.

I wrote this September 24-25, 2015, but had forgotten about it. Mary Jo Coull, a new Facebook friend remembered seeing it, found it on July 20, 2017!
