HEARTS, STARS, AND DIAMONDS

Two hearts that beat apart!

Two hearts that don’t dance to the same tune!

Two hearts living separate lives,

Yet staring at the same moon?

Two stars that burn apart!

Two stars that wistfully sigh!

Two stars that light the way,

Yet sharing the same night sky?

Two diamonds that glitter apart!

Two diamonds with a value unknown!

Two diamonds crafted from the same Jeweler!

Yet two diamonds cut from the same stone?

Two Hearts that beat as one!

Two Stars that burn as one!

Two Diamonds shaped into one heart,

Never from each other to part!

LIVE AS THOUGH

“Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”

(Ephesians 5:15-16, NIV).

Live as Though,

You are not your own!

Live every day,

As a gift on loan!

Live as Though

To be missed by all!

Waste no time

Fulfilling your God-given call!

Live for only One;

The Lord Jesus Christ!

For God’s only beloved Son,

Be a living sacrifice!

Live with godly Fire,

By melting cold hearts!

Live only to inspire,

The Blessing it imparts!

Live with Vision,

Extracting nectar from its flower!

Live with this purpose,

And sweet will be its power!

Live as Though,

The Lord were to come today!

Live with this Hope,

For there is no time to delay!

LOYALTY

It is so true,

but rare to find loyal people to be loyal to,

who in turn will be loyal to you.

This is what to do,

Go find a friend who is loyal and true,

One who will be faithful to you.

If such a friend alludes you,

Don't give up, be the friend who stays true!

And soon your hope will renew.

Now their is a Friend,

Faithful and true is He I love to recommend

On whom you can depend.

Now this Friend I speak of,

Is the Lord Jesus Christ, full of love,

Seated on God's right hand above.

This Loyal friend so true,

Is my most faithful Friend I present to you,

He will be loyal to you.
