One day after church I was asked
A question that resonated with me. God speaks through people, really. It stuck, though I couldn’t yet see. “Did you enjoy it?” Did I what? That set me off thinking… Is there something to this That I could be missing? I went because you have to, To listen and learn, Keep straight your paths, Now how I yearn… I want to know You, I want to know more. My wonderful Savior, That touched my core. Never read my Bible, No desire before. I prayed and You gave, But You wanted more. So much time wasted, On things that don’t matter. Neglected the important, Replaced with the latter. What should’ve been first, I left for last. Thinking there’s time… Time and pleasure fade fast. Love God above all things, Was only fooling myself. I loved the world’s things, But they didn’t love back. Now You have my heart, Should’ve had it from the start. There’s no one greater, I love You Abba, Father. You’ve been calling, I always said not now. Maybe one day when I’m not busy? Besides, I don’t know how. It’s now, not later; Tomorrow may not come. Plan all you like. Around the corner Death waits, already taking some. You give me the words, And I’ll plant the seeds. It’s you who makes them grow, My only job is to sow. Who has ears to hear? Will anyone listen? The end approaches, He is near. Don’t let your heart harden. Here one moment, gone the next, You and I are wisps of air. The world grows darker, be the light! Tell of our hope and joy. Do you dare?
