Sponges
Sponges come from the bottom of sea
Nutrients they pick up through their unique body
Harvested by humans to clean and soak up a spill
Sponges can soak up and hold a generous amount of water yes they will
We too have a sponge’s filling capacity
Located in that organ in our cranial cavity
We’ve been given a very unique ability
To gain enormous information a wonderful utility
We can gain and retain all sorts of knowledge
By experiences life at a technical school or college
We are able to soak up all that information
And we can learn what will lead to growth or deformation
And even more importantly we need to expand our knowledge of Jesus our Lord
And expand as do sponges our desire for His Word
We need to know that Evil needs to be avoided as the used wine skins of old
Worthless were they for new wine because they were not able to hold
As our Lord told the Pharisees
Old wine skins will become tragedies
While new wine skins as sponges fulfill
Expanding not bursting they completely fill
We must trust in the Lord for He is true good
Learn to love Him and to enter His brood
And become as a sponge for all of His Teachings
And remove from your mind the Devil’s old wine skins
Amen
