Thls poem was in the E News from FBC Camilla. It is a great sermon
illustration. (Thanks to Bro. Rick Williams.) I saw them tearing a building down, A gang of men in a dusty town. With a “yo heave ho” and a lusty yell, They swung a beam and the side wall fell. I asked the foreman if these men were as skilled As the men he’d hire, if he were to build. He laughed and said, “Oh , no indeed. Common labor is all I need.” For those men can wreck in a day or two, What builders had taken years to do. I asked myself as I went my way, Which kind of role am I to play? Am I the builder who builds with care, Measuring life by the rule and square? Or am I the wrecker who walks the town, Content with the role of tearing down?
