My Turn in the Nursery

 

Last Sunday was my turn in the nursery to work.
My heart wasn’t in it; my feelings were hurt.

A child from its mother did not want to part

And it cried a lot with its broken heart.

I prayed that soon the hour would end,

That I could relax – no more children to tend.

Soon the hour was over, it felt good to be free.

I said “Once a month was too much for me!”

The very next Sunday as I sat in the pew

A very good sermon, but visitors were few.

But down came a woman and her soul was saved.

She was the mother of that crying babe!

Then it dawned on me that I had been a part

Of one being saved – giving God her heart.

From that day on I would never dread

Working in the nursery while souls are fed.
