Ordinary Joes Can Change the World
by Irvin Rozier An ordinary Joe is not famous in any way He just goes about his business day by day You pass many ordinary Joes on the street They are not influential enough for a politician to meet Ordinary Joes live their lives, have families and work Many of them have jobs with nary a perk Yet deep inside they believe in their fellow man Their Mom or their Dad is their number one fan Ordinary Joes just want to be left alone They could care less about sitting on a throne But these ordinary Joes can be a powerful force When they unite with one purpose and with one voice God often chooses ordinary Joes for a specific task He knows that only in His presence they will bask Noah was an ordinary Joe, a hardworking man When God gave him an ark to build according to His plan Gideon's family was poor and of them he was the least When God chose him to change the famine to a feast Amos was no prophet, just a herdman was he When God said go prophesy, I have chosen thee Peter and John were ignorant and unlearned men Yet Jesus chose them as disciples along with the other ten The Bible is filled with stories of those that God chose To turn the world upside down though they were ordinary Joes Copyright 2008 Irvin L.
