Be Its Best

Be Its Best

 

I thank God for a new day

I greet the floor and know I am here-

A gift of knowing I will be.

To love the good and ignore the evil.

A genesis of fresh existence

Without agendas or manipulations.

Diminishing the judgment and the fear.

Obligated to do only what it takes

But to embrace all that gives.

Forgiveness softens the past pains

But strength resists them to repeat.

The core is my Lord around whom I wrap.

Life can leave me at any time.

Leaving each day to be its best.
