What Matters Most

What Matters Most

If you were to be asked today “What three things matter most”,
would you answer The Father, The Son, and the Holy Ghost?
Or would your answer to what you give the most worth,
be someone or something of this Earth?

The eternal treasures that we’re now accruing for eternity,
depend on what the love of our lives happens to be.
Do we love the Lord and all that’s been done in His name,
or do we instead love prosperity, possessions, and fame?

Have we died to the sinful desires and lusts of our flesh,
or do we continue to walk and sin in selfishness?
The choice is ours alone to make and should not be delayed,
those putting it off will end up inconsolably dismayed.

Tis our lot to share the truths we’ve each been shown,
with seeds of love to others unsparingly sown.
We’re to live the life we’ve been Blessed to live as best we can,
by reaching out in love and kindness to our fellow man.
Not to judge others nor to take advantage of their kind heart,

but ours to follow God’s guidance and doing our part.
Reaching out to share with those who are lost what we love most,
namely The Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost!
