Value Each Day

Life is a vapor, a fleeting mist, here for a moment, then lost in the abyss. 
A reminder stark of our transient stay, encouraging us to value each day. 
Live wisely, live well, under the sun, 
for life is uncertain, but beautifully spun.


Value time, live wisely, let love increase, in thoughtful ways, find your peace. Life is a journey, a meaningful quest, in God's hands, we are blessed. Align our plans with the Divine will, "If the Lord wills, we shall climb this hill." Not a definitive statement about our fate, but a humble prayer, before it's too late.

In God's hands, our lives do rest, aligning with His will is always best. Wealth is fleeting, can't buy redemption, a truth we learn with deep reflection. All people, rich or poor, share the same fate, a humbling thought, to contemplate. Trust not in possessions, they cannot save, their worth is not the measure of the brave. Material wealth is not the goal, but a loving heart, a kind soul.

Knowing what's right is but half the quest, action is needed to pass the test. Inaction, neglect, when we know what's right, is a sin in itself, obscuring the light. Humility is our guide, our steadfast friend, reminding us, we're not in control of the end. Treat all with respect, with dignity, for in God's eyes, we are all free. Seek wisdom about life, death, wealth, and need, understanding these, is to succeed. Envy not others for what they own, focus on spiritual values, let them be known. 

The dance of life, so unpredictable and free, we craft our plans with hopeful glee. Yet mindful we must be, as the future unfolds, that life, like a river, never truly holds. Our ambitions, our dreams, like ships setting sail, are subject to change with each passing gale. In the vast expanse of His divine plan, God's work is not bound by the scope of man. Not confined to a group, community, or clan, it's carried out by anyone who believes they can. 

Believers in Jesus, in His name they act, their faith in Him, a proven fact. Working towards a goal, a sacred pact, allies in His love, in unity intact. Not competitors in a worldly race, but companions in seeking His grace. Accepting all, regardless of their base, promoting unity, cooperation we embrace. In our interactions, let's include, not judge others, nor be rude. For our understanding may be skewed, in His love, we are all pursued.
Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
