How Was Your Living Today

How was your living today? How  was your first breath spent? Was it to pray? As your eyes strained to open, did you feel a great dare? How was your living today? How was your loving today? Did you offer a smile? Did you listen a while? Was forgiveness your gift? Did you ease a friend’s trouble? How was your loving today? Did you feel every beat of your heart? Are you certain that you will remember The roads you have travelled, the souls you have touched? Did you feel every beat of your heart? How will you rest this night? Will the history you’ve made be right? Is all that you’ve done true to the Son? How will you rest this night? How was your living today?

Summer is for Living

Light, warmth, sweet breezes, He whispers. Dawn’s favor majestically waits . A fine summer day has presented its promise I’m alive and His gift I’ll not waste. What plan do you sing my beneficent angel? How shall we avail this fine turn? Shall we laugh? Shall we dance? Shall we sing? Shall we pray? Does your mission beg urgent concern? Lead me through sunshine aloft on your wings. Embolden my spirit to soar. I must marshal my talents as He has demanded. I must live to the fullest, should there not be one more. Summer, oh summer! Your days are for living. I slept a long winter, then spring lead me to you. I’m ready to honor your plan. Imbue every breath and waste not one heartbeat. Summer! Oh Summer! How Grand!
