I shall acquire the gift And skill of telling people no. I shall take joy in saying it And watch myself grow. No one shall cast upon me, The words of guilt and shame. If their life is not being Managed right… I am not the blame. I'll only say yes when I Know it will make a difference, When it will lead to a godly reverence. I’m tired of circling back around, I’ve grown weary in Dealing with minds unsound. If my friends and relatives Only strive to exist, They will never find Their purpose in the midst of this. They may get upset When I tell them no, But I know, I am helping them to grow. Yesss! I shall take joy in saying no! Author: Joyce Rogers CLICK HERE for details on my upcoming book.
