The Reality of Life

Every person lives breath upon breath
what if the next one be their last
their total existence comes to a halt
every single one would all be past

Living out one's life shows reality
that there's no denial life is real
it may be depressing, joyful or just plain
but as with an orange you need to peel

Questions come to you along the way
is there a maker of this big globe?
holy scripture shows it has a creator
this was confessed by God's man Job

This reality was evident by God's son
who came to live on earth to show
God's plan to rescue lost mankind
tell them of God for real to know

Life without Christ is false reality
only united to Jesus is real true
then you've promise of life eternal
His spirit indwelling always in you

(I have written this piece about my beliefs about reality, what makes reality. )
