to GOD be the GLORY
~ Spare-Tire Christians ~
By Deborah Ann
Spare-tire Christians,
smooth and tread-bare
only have faith . . .
when they lose air.
Calling on God,
only when deflated
the rest of the time
their ego’s inflated.
Spare-tire Christians,
come out of the trunk
only when they run . . .
out of good luck.
Praying to God,
for an easy, quick fix
then they speed off
back to their old tricks.
Spare tire Christians,
they are all around
they only need God . . .
when they break down!
~~~~~~~~
Having a form of godliness,
but denying the power thereof:
from such turn away.
