Make time .... by bruni

Make time ....

A friend sent me one of those chain letters..I'm not that fond of them but I liked the pictures in this one and the poem which I like to quote to you ..I thaught was worth reading.

QUOTE:

I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up of my knees.
My christian dute was now done
My soul would rest at ease.....
All day long I had no time
to spread a word of cheer.

No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They'd laugh at me I fear.
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry.
No time to give souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die.
I went before the Lord ,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God! He held a book;
It was the book of life.
God looked into his book and said
"Your name I cannot find,
I once was going to write it down.....
But never found the time".

Very nice, and I must admit, I usually delete the ones I get after I look at them.
