Life

Never take any moment for granted.

Now, that’s a cliché.

But it’s an important seed that must be planted. 

We can all be led astray.

Our paths can become slanted.

But that’s better than the highway.

Do we really want to follow society?

Why can’t we all just be kind?

Why do we fill our lives with so much anxiety?

Sure, when you look at the sun you become blind,

But isn’t that such pure irony?

For what truly was the sun designed?

Follow the light, and become a light.

Sunshine sets you free.

Never give up the fight.

Can’t you feel it? Can’t you see?

God’s love is what’s right.

God wants you to be who he made you to be.

Find Christ, and you find life.
