A materially wealthy man told me
It was not worth the time or effort
To encourage socio-economically challenged youth.
Wherever you are in life,
Whatever your job
-Take the time.
The nano-second it takes from your life
Could be the exact moment that
Forever changes life
For someone else.
There but for the grace of God…..

What you accumulate
In earthly possessions
Matters little.
It is what you allow
Into your heart
That will greatly affect
Your eternity.
Let Jesus
Reign large
In your heart!

There is no compromise
To truth.
God’s truth is
Eternal.
It changes not by the winds of change
Or the dictates of the season.
Hold fast
To the profession of your faith
In its fullness.
Do not compromise!

Never presume to know a situation
By what you think you see.
You have only stopped by
At a moment in someone’s life.
There are decades of moments
That you do not know.
Make the most of the moments
You share with someone.
Sow threads of love, grace and compassion
Into the moments you are gifted in your own life
And into the moments you gift to others.

Every once in a while
You meet someone
Who actually hears you.
No explanations necessary.
They get it.
What a beautiful experience that is
When encountered!
Be that person for someone.
Really be present and listen.
It is a gift beyond measure.

It is most often better
To listen
Than to reveal too much.
Not everyone
Has your best interest
At heart.
Share yourself
With discernment.
Stay safe.
Keep tight boundaries.

Have you allowed your relationships
To be reduced to electronic transmission?
Does a text here, an email there
Constitute relationship?
It is sad how far we have journeyed
Away from each other.
Spend some quality, uninterrupted time
With a friend.
In the end,
It is the people that make life
Worth living.
Let the people in your life know their
Worth to you.

Not everyone wants to change.
Not everyone wants to grow.
Listen.
Be kind
But know when the need is real
And when
It is simply drama.
Unless you are in theater,
Drama can be very draining.
Let the curtain close.
Walk away.

Release past hurts.
Release past mistakes.
Release past pain and trauma.
Simply
Release the past.
What you carry with you
That does not serve you now
Only weighs you down
And robs you of
Today.
Your life is now,
Not in the past.
