why?

why bother bout the little bugs in our lives
when there's so much more happening in the world?
why keep complaining bout what we don't have
when so much has been given us?

why weep and mourn over one loss
when there's plenty more who loves?
why dwell in self-pity and drain ourselves dry
when we can water it with confidence and care?

why hold on
when there's no grip?
why not let go
when we can let God?

why do we say we trust
when we still live in doubt?
why do we say we'll surrender
when we're still trying to run?

why settle in mediocrity
when we can live in power?
why do what we can
when we can do what He can?

why look at our own mess and cry
when some has it worst than us?
why do we try to kill our lives
when some are fighting to keep theirs?


we were meant to live for so much more!
let's look around
we're really blessed
let's stop living for ourselves
and make a difference in the lives of others and ours!
