My Worldly Possessions

I don't have much to offer when you put it in a dollar amount.
I cherish what I have and that's what really counts.
I don't have a great fortune,
I can honestly forget about the fame.
I don't try to compete with others,I have nothing to gain.
My clothes are not the most expensive ones in the store.
My car did not come off  the showroom floor.
I don't live in a mansion,let alone a house.
My worldly possessions on one hand could I count.
These are materialistic things that will fade,
Or be a memory when I'm gone.
What I want people to remember when I close my eyes and take
my journey to Heaven my eternal home.
That I Love my family,closet friends,and that I cared about
my fellow man.
That I would give my last dime  to help someone in need.
I will go the extra mile so a homeless man I could feed.
I would remember not to lay up treasures on this earth.
My worldly possessions have no worth.
I will not wish for things that I really don't need.
I will not let my heart be over come by greed.
I will not turn my nose up towards someone who have there
own God given look.
I will always keep in my mind that my name is written in Heavens book.
My worldly possessions could be easily taken away.
The same as my life even before judgment day.
My worldly possessions..
