Life Is Just Too Short
Life Is Short....
Life is to short....it goes by too fast...
what you do for Christ is a treasure that will last.
I know we get busy with our house and nice cars...
Food on the table, plenty of "cookies in the jars."
We forget the time we spend with our family...
Trying to live our lives pretending we're happy.
We want to show off "our" possessions and charm,
but are often walking in danger and harm.
When our true love is not Jesus... but things...
Our "wealth", our house, diamonds and rings.
On the inside, we're empty, God's love we're without...
We often forget what being a child of God is all about.
Return to your first love—don’t hesitate...
Do it now....the hour's growing late!!!
