Qualities of a True Life
Life
Is what we make it
When we change it, it’ll always remain
Death
When it comes, we shall not fear
For we have eternity
Home is where we are
Where we live
Where we pray
The Homeless are those who are lost
They have yet to be found
They have yet to believe
Love those we care for
Those who care for us
Unconditionally
Those who don’t love are filled with emptiness
They are hollow shells
Of what we are
Courage
Is to know what to do
To follow God even at great cost
Those without courage
Don’t know where to turn
They don’t know how to ask for forgiveness
Faith
Is to believe what you cannot see
Because you know the truth
Those without faith
Find it hard to believe
They are told many things but lack a true path
Wisdom
Is to know that you lack knowledge
Compared to God we know nothing
Those without wisdom
Think they know it all
They don’t know that only God knows everything
Peace is what we feel
When we are loved
By our God
Those without peace
Find it impossible to relax
They can’t calm down and be free
