Matthew Chapter  Seventeen

After six days on Mt. Transfiguration

There stood Christ, Moses, Elias talking.

Peter said, "This is so good and so right,

Let's build 3 tabernacles for Moses, Elias, and Christ."

 

Before he quit talking a cloud overshadowed them.

They fell on their faces greatly afraid.

A voice from the cloud said, "Christ is my son, hear Him!"

When they recovered, Christ only had stayed.

When they came down they were met real quick,

By a man whose son was a lunatic.

He begged for mercy, "Your disciples couldn't help me."

Jesus rebuked the devil and he was cured instantly.

The disciple asked why they couldn't do that

Jesus explained, "Your faith was too flat.

If you have faith the size of a mustard seed

You could help so many in times of need."

Suddenly they were faced with their taxes due

With no income what were they to do?

Jesus said, "Go fishing and the 1st fish you take

Will have money in it's mouth for you to pay."
