HE WON'T GET OFF THE 'PHONE!

12/28/2013

 
Picture
HE WON'T GET OFF THE 'PHONE!

The dinner, succulent, sits waiting,
A rib roast, tender at the bone,
But no one yet is celebrating,
In fact their nerves are slowly grating,
Because he won't get off the 'phone!

The grass beneath the hammock pushes,
The yard is badly over-grown
With debris and disheveled bushes,
As tow'ring as the Hindu Kush is
Because he won't get off the 'phone!

The child, the pup are sore neglected,
The wife feels she exists alone,
Their countenances so dejected,
From Father they are dis-connected,
Because he won't get off the 'phone!

Outside a silvery moon is shining,
Where late the golden sun has shone,
But inside there is only pining,
In circumstances too confining,
Because he won't get off the 'phone!


*****
1 Timothy 5:8  "But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel."


We are to provide more than just material and monetary goods for our families. We must also be sure to provide our family members with love and attention.

And, most of all, we need to be providing good Godly wisdom and instruction - by both word and example. 


Much damage is done in ignoring our loved ones and our parental duties while pursuing idle (idol!) pleasure and distraction.



So...please, get off the phone!!  : )




In His Love,

Pastor Greg
