We should give up all things
of inconsequence in exchange
for eternal joy. At first it seems
like so much, but eternity is forever.
Our sacrifice does not compare to
that of Christ on the cross.
We are all to return to dust and
it is good to remember, especially
when we seem shortchanged.
Being given the gift of life supersedes
any hardships we may endure.
Being born in this country is like
winning the lotto. The least of us
have more than most of the world.
We have cravings and must keep
things in perspective. Naysayers
are quick to condemn those
proposing solutions which will
improve conditions in the whole world.
We are shortsighted and use arguments
to defeat or advance based on our own views.
We must pray if we desire joy. Amen
