Life’s Compensation

What does one gain from each day that he lives?

Each day gives an opportunity to savor, to profit, to give.

Life is so much more than simply an existence.

You should delve into the art of living for it is more than subsistence.

It is a chance to discover all you can be.

The reward of life is the chance to improve, enhance, learn and to see.

Today is a chance to achieve what was not accomplished yesterday.

Use it to show gratitude to our Creator for yet another day.

When Christ died on the cross to pay for our shortcomings and sin

He paved the way for our eternal life to begin.

This augmented the beginning of our Salvation.

Jesus is the start of our Spirits liberation.

So accept each day with praises for the one who came to our rescue.

He gave his life to convey forgiveness for me and for you.

And he lives on today, tomorrow and forever!
