Things to Remember





It’s easy to forget
In living’s coming-going plod
That the way we treat fellowmen
Reflects to them our love for God

It’s easy to forget
When fanciful Enticement tempts
That, after the brief thrill of it
Remains far-reaching consequence

It’s easy to forget
The words that spew from tempers lost
Carry, in spite of deep regret
A sad, inevitable cost

It’s easy to forget
How swift moments tune history
And how each little thing we do
Adds to life’s lasting legacy

It’s easy to forget
That by the grace of God we go
No matter where or who we are
We should remember it is so

 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed 
to the things which we have heard, 
lest at any time we should let them slip. 
Heb. 2:1
