A poem by Kate

Every year seems to be the same
Day after day everything becomes lame,
We take things for granted
Not knowing why,
We want God’s promise
To be fulfilled in our lives,
But we hesitate to keep His promise
I always wonder why?
Man has crazy character
All the don'ts we want to do,
All the do’s we don’t do
Because of this our lives are becoming doomed!

Last year
We simply forgot to do some simple things,
We forgot to smile
We forgot to go the extra mile,
We forgot to thank our Heavenly Father
For those beautiful moments,
In our lives.
Instead
We feared,
When He said, fear not for 365 days
We worried,
When He said, do not worry about tomorrow
We cried and grieved,
When He said, cast all your burdens upon me
We had our expectations,
When He said,to love your neighbours as yourself
We took the wrong turns,
He said to trust in his timings.

Sadly
We forgot our shepherd’s voice,
When He called His sheep
We failed to hear His voice,
As sheep we failed
To look up to our shepherd.
Now
My dear herd of sheep,
Let’s not forget to pray
That this year
It’s just not another year,
It seems too far but too close
Within the twinkling of any eye,
All the saved souls will go
Let us heed to our shepherd’s voice
And let Him lead this year
As a Christ filled new year!
