Take Nothing for Granted

Take Nothing for Granted

Enjoy your life today
it drifts along so fast,
don't fret about the future,
or dwell upon the past.

Stop and smell the roses
and when the sky is gray,
count your many blessings,
don't wish the time away.

Spend time whenever possible
with friends and family,
because each passing moment
soon becomes a memory.

Since God orders your steps
be glad where you're planted;
appreciate God's goodness
and take nothing for granted!

About the Poet
Christian since 1973, widowed in 2007, but by the divine appt. of God, I married a wonderful, godly widower in Oct. 2010. Three grown, married sons and eight grandchildren. My first love is Jesus who inspires my pen, for apart from Him I can do nothing! I desire to honor the Lord and edify readers thru poetry He inspires.
