Not because we have to

Not like the story
the master angry
the third servant
returning what he was given

Wanting to give back
more than we were given
not because we have to
but motivated by love

Feeling so blessed
to be blessed by our savior
to feel him with us
all of our lives

Wanting, from our spirit
God too within us
wanting to return
a harvest for God
