My Work
If I should fail to do the work,
Which God designed for me,
In all the world there's not a soul,
To do my job, you see.
Some may accomplish what I could not,
And gather much fame and wealth,
But no other creature which God has made,
Can do my work but myself.
So, however humble my task may be,
And how much tempter to quit,
I'll remember each day as I press along,
That nobody else can do it.

You are very welcome. This little poem when I first read it, it really touched my heart, as it does each time I read it.
The night I used it in a sermon, I noticed they were a few who had tears in their eyes.
No doubt God gives us all a work to do, and no matter how small it may seem to us or how others might look down on us, its very important to our Father, just as we are important to him.
I think its neat that you posted it, maybe it will help others, and that is one of our jobs for sure.
May the Lord bless,
Jerry
