Birthday Thoughts...

So, as of this past Sunday, I'm another year older. Almost a quarter of a century old. :) I hope and pray that this year will bring opportunities to grow more like my Savior and to share Him with others.

Another year has come and gone.

What has its burden been?

With what have its days and weeks been filled?

What has each moment seen?

Have I improved each heaven-sent

And golden opportunity?

Have I made the most of each blessing lent

And lived my Christianity?

Have I wasted my precious moments of time;

And instead of living, was I content to mime?

Another year of life has passed.

Its record through eternity will last.

Another year is coming new.

What will its burden be?

With what will I fill each day and week?

What will each moment see?

Lord, help me each day to gain some ground,

To make the victories mount.

I want to reflect Christ's image sweet,

To make each moment count.
