“I have a position open
that is if you qualify,
you don’t need many skills
all you have to do is apply.

These are the kind of folks I’m look for
so, if they apply to you,
and you have a desire to serve others
then I know that you will do.

I’m looking for the poor
in body or spirit of heart,
folks who has faced life’s burdens
and have felt themselves torn apart.

Someone who has known depression
and have been to that bottomless pit,
where hope was all there was to cling to
if that sounds like you, then you will fit.

Someone who has suffered pain
and hurt till they could hurt ‘no more,’
and yelled out to call God’s name
to lift them up from the floor.

I’m looking for folks, who often feel lonely
who feel abandoned by so many others,
but is willing to start each day over
and live among sisters and brothers.

If you’ve been on alcohol or drugs
and felt your life slip away,
then you certainly do qualify for the task
and your troubles on My shoulder, you can lay.

Someone who has been neglected or abused
and have lived that horror from your past,
the nightmares keep plaguing you
then you surely qualify for this task.

Man or woman makes no difference
whether married, single or divorced,
if you want to pull yourself together
then you are certainly par for the course.

If you are a sinner in the worse of all ways
and feel inadequate, afraid, or filled with fear,
then this position will do you well
for I will hold you in My heart so dear.

If you have known the pains of hunger
or fearful of a world in strife,
this task I have for you, will change all of that
for I will teach you a different kind of life.

This position is open to many and all
those who are in prison or a jail in your town,
awaiting an unfair verdict
then your application is heaven bound.

If you feel much sorrow for your country
trying to do away with My name,
whether in public places, schools or currency
from atheist’s minds, who are to blame.

If you feel they should not pursue this cause
apply right away, you won’t be put ‘on pause’
If your memory is failing, and My name you forget
then for this mission you will fit.

If you have condemned, for mistakes you have made
become My disciple and you will surely be saved.
You must be a weakling, and have need for a friend
I will always be near, from beginning until the end.

This will not be an easy road to travel
you’ll need others to help you along,
and, I will give you all that you will need
unconditional love, that will make you very strong.

I will give you angels to be your guide
who will give you comfort each and every day,
and never again, to wander aimlessly,
for they will be with you always, to stay.

No need to worry about being educated
or intelligent like those of the world,
just put your faith, and trust in Me
and your journey will then be impearled.

Last of all but not the least
you must come to Me often in prayer,
and if you feel that they are not answered
just remember, I am always there.

This task I have for you won’t be easy
and by others you might be taunted,
but the Kingdom of Heaven awaits you
That’s why I posted this request as “Wanted.”

Your Savior and Lord, JESUS!
