Our Best Must Prevail Now
Now calls for our best to prevail
since functional moments matter most
breathing out triumphant pursuits
letting our hearts throb with fulfillment chime.
Blest with this present opportunity
our gratitude drives endeavor's zeal
toward a prayed-for achievement
marked by love, devoid of selfishness.
Cognizant of life's fleeting nature
our faith looks beyond the temporal*
while enjoying daily victory
divinely endowed for sharing bliss.
Today showcases God's gift of grace* midst compassion, kindness, mercy, peace
glowing with hope we accept with thanks
ready for optimization's zest.
2Corinthians 4:15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
