Ok, this started out as a poem, but i decided it was a better lesson.
WHy is it that we never pray until something happens to divert our lives in ways that we dont like? Isnt that selfish?
WHY is it that we never call for help until our plans are messed up beyond fixing so no one is able to help? Isnt that stubborn?
WHY is it that we wont give up until the thing we have grasped so tightly finally slips slowly away? Isnt that stupid?
Wouldnt life be so much simpler if we pray every day, if we ask for help from the start, if we let go of something that will only hurt us?
Wouldnt life be som much simpole if God was the center of our lives?
Not money,
Not fame,
Not fortune
But God.
Two simple words: But God. Two simple words that are so hard to say at times. We like to not acknowledge that God is the center of our lives. We can do things by ourselves. WE dont need help. WE, WE, WE. No.. it should not be that way. It should be GOD GOD GOD.
WE are sinners, BUT GOD sent HIS son for us.
WE should all die, BUT GOD loves us more than we can ever imagine.
WE spend most of our time thinking about us, BUT GOD spends ALL of HIS time thinking about us...his children.
Life gets hard. BUT GOD is always there...by our side, helping us through the night. He helps us through everything we go through. WE dont do anything by ourselves. Nomatter how independant we think we are, we ALWAYS need God. We may stray, BUT GOD pulls us back. We may sin, BUT GOD forgives and forgets.
Now, how much of your life is going to be spent thinking BUT GOD?
