Formula for Winning

God's Grace is Your Success

Today's decision is tomorrow's reality,
With God's blessing I'm full of vitality;
I want to start something new this day,
I know that God doesn't want me to delay,
For whoever deals with such a slack hand,
Will wind up poor for whatever was planned;
But a hand of the diligent will be wealthy,
God will ensure that he will remain healthy;
For you can't get it done by putting it off,
With whining and complaining or to scoff;
You need to start then just follow through,
God wants your goals and dreams to pursue;
Knowing each idea is another of God's gift,
That'll give you a boost and spiritual lift;
With His gift comes a sacred responsibility,
Using it to enhance your spiritual ability;
If you neglect the gift that God gave you,
It'll just fade or disappear from your view;
Never be lazy while you're serving the Lord,
Or you find out your prayers being ignored.
