Excellent. No job is considered too small in the eyes of the Lord. I liked that you saved the church cleaning for the end. It made a nice little "twist" to your story. "Just find a hole" is great. There are many holes waiting to be filled by people who wish to volunteer. Excellent rhyme and flow in this, and the mood is on the upbeat side. judi

Comment from brenda bickers
Hi Roy,
I think everyone has a hole to fill and most of us do so without knowing in our daily lives. But it is those that go beyond and above the call of duty that makes the real difference.
I loved this wonderful story. I wish I had a six left.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem can be a tool for others to read and know that people serve where they are, with what they have, whatever is needed. Terrific poem to initiate action.

Comment from Rasmine
This is a good poem, Roy, thank you, for sharing it. I will now go to Part II.
I hope Valentine's Day goes well. Giving your wife that poem will be the best present she can get, (but don't forget some flowers and candy maybe). :P

Oh my, Roy! I have goose bumps all over my arms. This brought tears to my eyes. I needed to read this today. What a beautiful message that has moved me so.
This is so uplifting to read. I can't thank you enough for sharing this special part in your life. If only everyone would ask Him the same question. This world would be more loving and peaceful. Beautifully done and bless you my dear friend.
Always your fan,
Shana :)

Comment from Gloria ....
A very interesting story, Roy. There's so much need for good-hearted people and volunteers everywhere or as you say holes that need some tending.
Great job my friend and best wishes to you in the contest.

Comment from ScarletAffliction
I liked the unexpected ending on this one. The cleaning crew! I love it. :)
It is true that Christians can sometimes find themselves trying to share in God's glory by earning praise and acknowledgment. I frequently have to ask myself who I'm trying to spotlight. Myself, or the one to whom who all glory should go? Tough questions and I find it difficult to know for sure all the time. Well done here!

Comment from davisr (Rhonda)
Now I see where the other poem came from. It works well with this story in a poem. In it you've shown true character, by following what the Lord asked you to do. To clean behind others is what he wanted from you, and blessed you in return.
Thank you for sharing your story,
Rhonda

Your story/poem contest entry convicted me. I know service to the Lord is extremely important. I usually do much better than I have done lately. I need to do much better.
