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”
