I can do anything,
But not all is helpful;
Little joy it will bring,
Since some of it seems dull.
Some things urge me to grow,
As it concerns others;
Because they do not know,
The reason it bothers.
Eat whatever is sold,
Drink whatever tastes good;
Do not what you are told,
Only do what you would.
Earth belongs to the Lord,
It all belongs to Him;
Giving thanks not ignored,
For your spiritual vim.
If pagans invite you,
For dinner at his place;
Make certain you go to,
Before eating say grace.
Eat anything he gives,
Being not a concern;
Observe just how he lives,
And be able to learn.
If it was sacrificed,
Onto another god;
Do not become enticed,
Eating what might be flawed.
You must use your conscience,
On what you pick and choose;
Sometimes needing patience,
If you stumble you lose.
Think of the candidates,
Which one is His servant?
Which one God advocates,
Who would be more fervent.
