Body and Soul

I feed my body to be strong I feed my soul for salvation But which should we value first? Should we value our soul more than our body? Or is it the other way around? Will it be unfair if we only choose one? Why can’t we value them both? Don’t you think our bodies are used for saving our soul? For we use our body to make decisions Right choices against temptations On the other hand, our soul gives us eternity An endless life with no more anxiety to think There in heaven where other souls live in peace If we waste our own body, we just waste our chance We give hell the chance to burn our soul Tormented in fire until it gets numb So think twice about your existence You live because you have a purpose Not to waste even a little time of your life Your existence is not about luxury and enjoyment For life is making good things around Be a good example to people So someday, He’ll see your worth and save you He’ll save you from the fires of hell.
