more rocks – v6

It is so true, unfortunately,
We add more rocks, stones,
saying yes too quickly,
not discerning the tasks
which are the calling of God

It is so easy, wanting to serve,
Saying yes without question
more rocks for the journey,
as if carrying more rocks will earn us
a place in heaven above
