Boot the Frustration


Have you ever awakened with a wonderful thought 
Beginning your day with a good start 
Then evil begins an imaginary situation 
Using that thought to try to break your heart 
He gets you so far out in left field 
With thoughts that never could be
In a real situation in your everyday life 
After an hour or two you then can see
You have let him control your thoughts 
Wasting time you could have put to good use 
He is laughing  “all the way to the bank”
Delighting in how he tortured you with his abuse 
The only way to take direct action
Against such happenings ruining your day 
Train your mind to focus right on God
Put and end to it God’s way
Jesus saw a fig tree one morning 
It had produced no food for Him to eat 
He “cursed” it for not living up to its potential 
Stood watching it crumble at His feet 
When something in your life is wasting you 
There’s no way it can bear good fruit 
Ask God t o give you the courage 
To give the cursed thing “the boot”
