Serving Which Master

Matthew 6:24
No one can or will ever serve two masters,
For that will be leading to many disasters;
For either you hate one and love the other,
Or just cater to one as you despise another;
You can't consider serving God and money,
If you think you can you're full of baloney.
We share in Christ in our faith and gifts,
With blessings from our God that uplifts;
It is our duty to God our Father Almighty,
Working on His behalf with His authority;
We're committed to God in time and talent,
To talk in prayer and in His Word be fluent;
By allowing ourselves, become sidetracked,
Satan's chance for us to be bushwhacked;
When we are overcome by lust and greed,
Just another way that Satan can succeed;
Remembering the Lord throughout the day,
Keeps from you Satan a little further away;
We are free to choose which master it'll be,
Either to Heaven or to Hell for eternity.
