What Matters?


In the end,
When everything fades,
And there's nothing but the light,
Will any of this matter?

In the end,
When everything else vanishes,
And you go to meet your judgement,
What will really matter?

Not your money,
Not your beauty,
Not your job,
Not your possessions ,
Not how popular you were,
Not how many friends you had.

When you reach your judgement
God doesn't care about earthly things,
But rather your heavenly treasures

He cares whether you lived for Him
Whether you were a light
Whether you loved His people
Whether you accepted the gift of His son's life

So what really matters in this life?

Is it your money?
Your beauty?
Your job?
Your possessions?
Popularity?
Friends?

No
It's not what you have in life
But rather how you live your life

Racing to You


Running
As fast as I can
Breathless
As my legs carry me through the darkness
Faster

Staring
But my eyes do not see
Searching
But I cannot find you in the darkness
Looking
Walls
Closing in on me in the darkness
Suffocating
And then my adrenaline can no longer ignore the pain
Blackness

And then you're there
A perfect picture in my mind
Whispering sweet words in my ear
And for now,
I can stop running, searching, suffocating
For now,
I am safe
