It’s a “Measure Of A Man” Wednesday.
LORD WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR ABOUNDING GRACE AND MERCY THAT ALLOWS US TO SEE THIS DAY. MAY WE LIVE IN SUCH A WAY THAT NO ONE SPEAKS ILL OF US. AMEN.
I have been in the ministry for 35 years and I have officiated hundreds of funerals/memorial services. I have collected hundreds of materials to aid me in trying to get Gods’ message across to His people. One such poem, the author unknown, I present to you today. It’s one of my favorites and I use it often. It is entitled:
“The Measure Of A Man”
Not-how did he die?
But-how did he live?
Not-what did he gain?
But-what did he give?
These are the units
To measure the worth
Of a man as a man
Regardless of birth.
Not-what was his station?
But-had he a heart?
And how did he play
His God-given part?
Was he ever ready
With a word of good cheer,
To bring back a smile,
To banish a tear?
Not-what was his church?
Nor-what was his creed?
But-had he befriended
Those really in need?
Not-what did the sketch
In the newspapers say?
But-how many were sorry
When he passed away?
Amen Lights & Walls!
