"Life"
Trophies and scars are memories to reflect, but more of life you should expect.
If life were yesterday it would be no more, but life is now not just before.
Life was the times those did care, and is today in love not rare.
Life was love held in your eye, and is today in tears you cry.
Life is not just the uphill climb, but up and down one hill at a time.
To hide life from God there is no way, but He's always there when we pray.
Life is not what we have or where we stay, but is love we've shared along the way.

James 4: 14... Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow... For what is your life?.. It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
People become disappointed in life when they search and find life in the wrong places.. Some feel who they are is what they do to earn a living.. Some feel their life is their family or friends or what others think of them.. Jobs can fail and much too soon families die, leave or divorce.. You are a whole person.. Therefore your life is made up of all you do while passing through this world... It is your job, losing and getting other jobs.. It is having children, watching them grow and sometimes burying them.. Your life is not just in your photo albums but it is in everyday you lived as those pictures were made.. Jesus Christ said He is the way, the truth and the life.. He is the only thing in your life that will never fail, change or forsake you.. We use what we've been through in the past to prepare us to live in and uncertain future.. Without Christ I would find it impossible to deal with the death of those I love.. That is why Christ says He is life.. He is life in everyway.. He gives us life to share not hide.. All God gives us will increase the more we give away.. Life is short, too short too let even one uphill climb keep you down for long.. Today enjoy a sunset, take a walk, smell a flower, have some fun and give a smile to others that are living this life too.. You are on the winning team, so even though you might be upset with the score during the game; let God assure you you will win.. Keep living smiling and shining.. May God Really Bless You!
