A Stone for Bread

By Rev. Dean Beaty 12/2/09

Luke 11:11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you

that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish,

will he for a fish give him a serpent?” (KJV)


If I ask the Lord for bread.

Would He give a stone instead?

When e'er I look at all the rest,

Have I been given less than best?


Do I think I've been short changed,

And wish my life were rearranged?

The Apostle Paul said, “Be content.” (Phil. 4:11)

When he himself lived in a tent.


At least that's how he earned his bread.

When not upon a prison bed.

Yet his cell was filled with praise.

Is that our way on our best days?


Envy can be a vicious sin,

That puts us in a tailspin.

It shows a lack of thankfulness.

These are sins we must confess.


Will I trust God to do what's right?*

When earthly trials become my plight?

That God gives best, I must agree.

For I'm His child and He loves me.


Genesis 18:25 “... Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?” (KJV)

Dear Sara,

Thank you for responding. I really thought this was your site Poet Portals as that was what

your site is called on "ning" It is good to see you here and may the Lord bless you for

all you do to promote others in what they do.

Sincerely,

Dean & Gladys
