The Months Seem to Slip by so Quickly for Me

by Chaplain Anthony Murphy Site Admin

The months seem to slip by so quickly for me.
If you are over 50, I'm sure you'll also agree.
Time is racing on at 60 seconds per minute.
But, I don't care, I'm in it to win it.

I want to make my life count while I'm here.
If I'm doing God's work, I have nothing to fear.
Someday we will all give an account of our time.
God will want to know what I did with mine.

I want Him to check in the book of life for me,
to let Him see what I did and hope He will agree
that I did a great job while I was here on earth.
And, that I served Him daily for all I was worth.

Alas, this isn't the case I have failed many times I know.
And, in God's book of life it would readily show.
However, I still have time to complete my task.
So, when He inquires, I can then smile when He asks.
