Questions Poem by Kathryn Tyler King

There’s little time left in life.
What will I spend it doing?
Will I just please my appetite?
That tempts and is appealing?

The Spirit of the Lord speaks.
Will I listen or will I just ignore
His nudging and His wooing?
Help me to hear. I truly implore.

Will my working in this world
Bring You joy and bring glory?
Help me know what You want.
I want reality, not just a story.

So when I wake up every day
let me hear what You speak Lord.
Direct my path. Direct my feet
and share Your Word, the sword.

So with what little time I have
help me not waste it but be wise.
I don’t want to spend a moment
without Your love and advice.
