His Delight

A friend sent me this... (thanks Sue for the grin and the inspiration!) and i could not resist temptation to "jump right in"! (is today the day for "tune-ups"?

sung to the tune of Gilligan's Island: (go here if you need a reminder http: //home.mn. rr.com/classictvGilligan'sThemeSong.html )


It started out with Mom's great plans, but the kids won't go along.
We had our pencils and our books, pajama's all still on.
That's when the trouble started friends, and soon my mind was gone, soon my mind was gone.

The children started whining loud, my head began to throb.
If not for chocolate and a can of coke, you would've heard me sob, you would've heard me sob.>>

LOL! Now here's my addition...

The chocolate starting wearing off, the caffeine buzz was gone
The children all began to cry, "our mommy's looking wan...she's really looking wan!"

My rescue came from Jonah's Word, as to Bible I did race;
When I cling to worthless idols, I can only forfeit grace... I only forfeit grace...

I turned away from the siren song of chocolate cake and Coke,
These empty lies i won't believe! They only leave me broke... they only leave me broke!

His Grace sufficient to all my needs, His Love gives victory...
His Joy gives Strength to my heart, I bow on bended knee... I bow on bended knee!

So now my story's near been told, the moral's very clear:
He calls me and on Him Alone I cast all of my fear! I CAST ALL OF MY FEAR!!!

Not bad after a week of nosing around the idol pile, eh? Nothing like a little experience to bring me to my knees!!!
