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.
