Making the Best Use of My Time

Making the Best Use of My Time

 

 

Will I make the best use

 of the time God’s given to me?

Will I make the best of what

 God’s entrusted to me?

 

With what God’s given, I need to make

 the best of it!

I haven’t even tried, and I’m sure

 he is tired of it!

 

God gave me his best,

 when on the cross, Jesus died!

He gave his life for mine,

that day he was crucified!

 

God’s given me his time!  Now, it’s my turn!

I’ve been living each day,

 and haven’t been concerned!

 

The choices I have, the decisions

 I’ll be makin.’

I need to do my best,

 before my time is takin’!

 

Giving my time for Christ,

 is something to achieve!

Blessings fro him is what I want to receive!

 

To you Lord, I’ll try my best way that I can.

I want to hold you close,

 and not let go of your hand!

 

My life and time are yours!

 Please take control!

You are all that matters! 

Everything else must go!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
