Spreading Light

So many books So little time How can I read them all? So many words, so many thoughts. So many visions, so many hearts. So many moments caught by pens… Moments when the light slowly seeped in, Moments when faith spoke so gently to the soul, Moments when grace captured the heart with hope! So many books So little time How can I read them all? So many voices, singing a soft chorus. So many songs, resonating in my spirit, So many dreams, imagined by hearts who believe… Voices who strive to bring love alive, Songs in rhythms of faith and feeling, Dreams so alive they can calm the grieving! So many books So little time How can I read them all? So many lives, colored in insight. So many sighs, dancing through life. So many prayers, spoken by trusting souls… Lives lived for the One who spoke it all into existence, Sighs of hope, grace and God given expressions, Prayers meant to be prayed by those who hear Him! So many books So little time How can I read them all? How can I find the meaning of life? Just opening my heart to the One who decides Between darkness and light, between joy and strife, Between doubt and faith, between blessing and curse, Between the wonder of love and the uncertainty of doubt, Between the promise of endless grace and that dreadful place! So many books So little time How can I read them all? How can I decide… between the words who silence… And the words that give the soul its voice, Between the words that encourage and the words that dissuade? Between the words that are worthy and the words that shame? Between the words with a purpose and the words that disgrace? Just listen to the words that give love a chance, There you’ll find the worth – in every expression that lasts! So many books So little time Read the words that spread light across the page!
