(THIS IS FOR DEBORAH:)
We are living in the most solemn times of earth's history just before the return of Jesus Christ to this earth. God has placed us here for a purpose--for such a time as this--to build for time and for eternity.
A Bag of Tools
Isn't it strange
That princes and kings,
And clowns that caper
In sawdust rings,
And common people
Like you and me
Are builders for eternity?
Each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass,
And a book of rules;
And each must make--
Ere life is flown--
A stumbling block
Or a stepping-stone.
Which are we--a stumbling block or a stepping stone? If our lives are stumbling blocks, no need to despair. Submit the blocks to the hands of the Master Builder. He will hammer and chisel them into stepping stones for the blessing and uplifting of humanity.

Hi Lynne.
I am doing a project on "A bag of tools". I need an analysis of it from anyone and I have not come across any. Would you please do an analysis of the poem for me?
Thank you
