The Calling 

Neighborhood children’s Bible Class at Clarence’s house. Clarence top left Wife Patty bottom row center

Some feel a Divine Calling from God. 
Many find themselves serving abroad. 

Receiving the best education, to prepare for the task
feeling comfortable, answering any questions they may be asked. 

All the worldly tools they have under their belt,
planning a budget or preparing a sermon that will be heart felt. 

Going out to perform the Great Commission,
Often forgetting to stop and ask God’s permission. 

Finding, His desire for their life
certainly brings much less strife. 

The most valuable tools, Stop, Pray, and Listen. 
Using these, everything done for God will Glisten.
