my verse...

Why were we placed
upon this hard dreary rock
just sitting here
going in circles?

Do I have meaning?
Why should I be dreaming?
I am just mortal;
it all ends.

Whatever I do
may make some dent
on someone, somewhere,
somehow.

But there mortal to!
Nothing I do will ever truly last.
I'm a mortal talking
to mortals.

This is the attitude
of many a person
living for who?
just themselves.

I am differrent however;
I'm different forever!
I don't live for me
and my pleasure.

I am a Christian;
a follower of Christ!
I have purpose:
a reason to live!

There is something much bigger
than any of us.
Something our minds
can barely grasp.

An almighty God
who feels and loves
who wants us;
who longs to draws us close.

I'm living for Him
not myself anymore
no one else has
what He gives.

I know when I die
it is not a goodbye
but hello to
a brand new life.

So for now I'll just try
to honor Him
and not I
and with all my strength
put Him first.
