We Must
by Barbara Philbrook

We must be kind to one another,
through Jesus each person is a sister or brother.

We must listen as others say what is on their mind,
to give them our attention is simply kind.

We must praise God even during adversity,
not for but in spite of what appears to be.

We must put our trust in our heavenly Father,
knowing without Him life would be much harder.

We must surrender daily to our Father's desire,
it is He that sets our hearts on fire.

We must search daily in the holy word,
God can not bring to mind what was never heard.

We must obey what is set in the rules,
to live any other way proves us utter fools.

We must love, honor and obey,
and talk to God each and every day.

We must do what we know to be right,
then we will be counted as acceptable in God's precious sight.
