A Spiritual Checkup
By George Thurlow
Where do I place my treasure?
In what do I invest?
Is it in a heavenly bank account
Where it can do the best?
Where do I spend the hours...
In pursuit of selfish leisure?
Do I make myself available
For God's delight and pleasure?
Do I see with eyes of compassion
What others are going through?
Am I living the life of J-O-Y,
Jesus, others, then you?
Do I plead for lost and dying souls,
Interceding with fasts and prayers?
Do I make an all out effort
To show that Jesus cares?
Do I follow in Christ's footsteps,
The pattern of servant-hood?
In all my words and actions,
Am I doing as Jesus would?
Do I see with eyes of compassion
What others are going through?
Am I living the life of J-O-Y,
Jesus, others, then you?
Do I plead for lost and dying souls,
Interceding with fasts and prayers?
Do I make an all out effort
To show that Jesus cares?
Do I follow in Christ's footsteps,
The pattern of servant-hood?
In all my words and actions,
Am I doing as Jesus would?
