Only Our Good Deeds

When the time to depart from this world comes

And the things we held dear must leave behind

We see that the only things we carry with us

Are our good deeds that our soul has enshrined!

Yes Demetrios for when we are shown what we did through out our lives the deeds of love and kindness and the acceptance of Jesus as our savior and repentance of our sins will be the only things that matter to be judged on and have value anything else is not relevant. Love your wisdom here my brother in Christ...

Dear, Demetrios. While your poetry, as well as the thoughts included within it, are lovely and accurate, you've done an outstanding job with your very sensible reminder that only good acts create a lasting inheritance.
