Discipline in Ministry

I may not be eloquent in my words

Not in speech nor in preaching

But I can jot coherent pieces together

I may not have the audacity to move

Hearts and souls towards a course

But through an article or a poem

I strive to push a message

Geared towards hope and inspiration

But nobody pays me for this

I mean, it is tasking and demanding

Sometimes through tire I have to do it

Though my broken self, I have to unbreak

The chains of hopelessness in others

Because other sad souls take preference

And it is not always about me

Discipline in ministry involves

Being selfless and working earnestly

Towards serving others

Even when you do not feel like it

Discipline in ministry is devotion

To the work of God

Because it for His own glory not yours
