Showing Gratitude

Ephesians 3:14-20

I bow on my knees to the Father of Christ,
Who was on this earth and was sacrificed;
As all in Heaven and on earth are named,
As a testimony that has been proclaimed;
For He will grant you riches of His glory,
Strengthen in spirit by truth in His story;
Christ dwells by faith in your heart within,
Being rooted by love rather than the sin;
Able to comprehend with all the saints,
That the love of Christ has no restraints;
With all the fullness of God being filled,
And of His blessings for to be instilled.
Our God is awesome seeing all His works,
Here we are acting like a bunch of jerks;
We should be grateful for all He has done,
Instead we have a tendency just to shun;
Many not showing respect one day a week,
Rather of a self pleasure what they seek;
Mark my words that God will pay you back,
Dealing with all of the faith that you lack.
