Keeping score

Helen Louise Oehler

Are you loving some who will not love you back?
Don't keep score.

Or helping others more than you receive?
Don't keep score.

Is patience with your fellowman exceeding what is
held for you?

Don't keep score!

Is grace of God sufficient in your tribulations?
Does Love's embrace uplift for "work well done"?
Will you not waver, though the heart may tremble?
Is yielding to the Father's will your final goal?

Here keep score.

Helen Louise Oehler
