OFF TRACK?=SLOW DOWN
Are you OFF TRACK
On this journey
We call LIFE?
Are you KEEPING God and
FAMILY FIRST=in your life?
There are so many MIRAGES
In life=things/people
That look good=but
Really are NOT
If you are off track
SLOW yourself down=
Negotiate the curves and get back
ON TRACK
“The plans of the diligent
Are sure of profit
But all rash HASTE
Leads certainly to poverty” Proverbs 21:5
The days come
The days GO
It is easy
For many of us
To SPEED through our days
To MISS
The growing of our children
The growing of our families
To miss the BEAUTIFUL sunsets
To miss the beautiful
BLUE ocean water
To miss those
In need=EVEN OURSELVES
SLOW DOWN=get on track
Take in
The BEAUTY OF LIFE
“One thing
I ASK from the Lord
This only I seek
That I may dwell
In the house of the Lord
All the days
Of my life
To gaze on
The BEAUTY of the LORD
And to seek him
In his temple” Psalm 27:4
“Charm is deceptive
And BEAUTY is fleeting
But a woman
Who fears the Lord
Is to be PRAISED” Proverbs 31:30
“Rather it should
Be that of
Your inner self
The UNFADING BEAUTY of a
Gentle and quiet SPIRIT
Which is of GREAT WORTH
In God's sight” 1 Peter 3:4
OFF TRACK?
SLOW yourself down
Take in the BEAUTY
Of all life=
What it has to OFFER
Maybe just for TODAY
We can ease off
The trigger a little bit
We can SLOW DOWN
And TRY to fight through
All the twists and turns
Life throws at us
Maybe we can ASK GOD
To HELP us back up
And PLACE us back on track
“My dear brothers
And sisters
Take NOTE of this
Everyone should be
Quick to listen
SLOW to speak
And SLOW
To become angry” James 1:19
Dear Lord=we PRAY=
SLOW US DOWN=so that
We can see and LIVE
In the BEAUTY
Of your world
In Jesus' name and in the name of HIS ALL-LOVING FATHER
