Life is not a Promise

We do succeed or fail basically for reasons that life creates . We must rely on Jesus if we want to live fulfilled.

 

 

Life is not a promise

It emanates from the  infinite unknown

Speeding to the utterly unknown

Just like a flash of light

 

Life is not a promise

It could advance a silver-spoon

Only to advance tragidy to hit back

Just life a flash of light

 

Life is not a promise

It resurrects pigs from the gabbage

To oppulence

Just in a flash of light

 

Life is not a promise

It habors no  sure formular

For men have failed where others succeeded

And succeeded where others failed

Just in a flash of light

 

It is a gamble with faith

And for those who cling to the perfect act

Will not only gain a promise to come

But also die to live fulfilled.

Reminds me of how the Saints were driven and full of zeal for the Lord. One must have a goal in their quest to succeed and if we enlighten one mind, who can call us a failure.
