Sometimes I wonder

what my life is worth
And yet I see

the miracle of my birth.
How astounding it is

that I came to be
For that I can thank my deity.

I was generated from one single cell
And grew in my mother, oh so well.
Welcome to the world!

And then I cried.
(We all cry, I'm told)

And my mother sighed.

I was healthy and strong

and fully intact.
What a beautiful start...

except for the whack.
And then...an event..

not a soul could rehearse...
God whispered the secrets

of the universe.

Those words were imprinted

inside of my soul.
Though instantly forgotten,

they made me whole.
I was born to travel

my entire life
Searching for meaning

amidst all the strife.

Then there were times

I knew not what to do

And I'd draw on that voice...

I instinctively knew.
And peace would enfold me

and make my heart still.
By lifting the troubles,

with Love it would fill.

The moments that pass...

they do leave a trace.
If we listen, we journey

to God face to face.
We seek Him, We love Him,

We worship Him, it's true.
But if we don't we are lost...
doomed through and through.

Our days are all numbered

like the hairs on our head,
But they needn't be filled

with misery and dread.
For to journey to Him

is the reason I find
That we're here to begin with...

He had that in mind,

When He made us to love HIm

and each other as well
Life itself is the meaning,

as far as I can tell.
We must learn our own lessons

and do them with love
And surely we'll be graced

with blessings from above.

He is Our Master to love,
honor and obey.
Nothing matters except this.
Believe this, I say.

So no more do I wonder

what my life is worth.
I've discovered its meaning

from my life here on Earth.
There's just one thing to remember

when everything fails
I'm a treasure because my life is worth...

A Crown of Thorns
and
Three Nails
