Loving God is time so well spent
Bearing your soul, talking with Him,
Reading His Word, basking in its light
Being reminded of His power and might.
And loving yourself is time well spent, too
Seeing yourself as God wants you to
Beholding the holiness, the completeness you have
Not dwelling on failure, self-pity or lack.
And loving others, time well spent it is
Seeking to build up, encourage and bless.
The ones close to you, and those in your path
They all need your love, it’s time to give back.
So swift are the days of all of our lives
Children and jobs, husbands and wives.
Let’s remind ourselves of the basic elements,
Living in love, it is time well spent.
Henry S. Altheide
