Joy is not necessarily in things, but in the generosity of others.
This table and chairs was given to us, by Jim and Sheri Hall's
neighbor. Josh Mortensen and Randy Elliott generously gave
up their time to deliver it.! So I think their efforts speak of
"the joy of usefulness." I did not write this poem to fit the event,
but it certainly does fit!
THE JOY OF USEFULNESS
The joy of usefulness
Is being alive.
The joy of usefulness
Is to survive.
The joy of usefulness,
To know someone depends on you.
The joy of usefulness,
To have a purpose too.
The joy of usefulness
We us reach out to others.
The joy of usefulness,
Getting to know sisters and brothers.
The joy of usefulness,
Meeting God's kingdom's needs.
The joy of usefulness
Practicing good deeds!
