Have you ever stopped to think,
if tomorrow never comes;
Will your family know you love them,
when your last day here is done?
Do you fill your life with earthly things,
or work your life away;
Thinking money, fame or fortune,
will get you through each day?
There's not one thing up on this earth,
even those things God has given;
You can take with you upon your walk,
through those pearly gates of Heaven!
God placed those loved ones in your care,
He thought you'd do your best;
Have you nurtured, taught and loved them all?
If not you've failed His test!
Now love, you see, is not a word,
to be thrown at them each night;
But wrap them up many times each day,
and forever hold on tight!
When you're angry, mad or hateful,
thoughts floating in your head;
Don't say those words you're thinking now,
but go to God instead!
Just show your family often,
hug and hold them every day-
How much you love each one of them,
then together kneel and pray!
Just ask My Lord, whose on His throne,
to guide you from above;
He'll lead you family day by day,
and fill you with true love!
Then follow God's example,
and when your laid to rest;
Your love won't be in question,
then yes, you'll pass His test!
How much do you love your family? How much do you show and express your love to them? Have you placed them in front of all the day to day "humdrum" of life? I hope you enjoy this piece I wrote questioning just this...if today was your last day on earth, will your family know how much you loved them? Think on it...they deserve 110% of us!!
