Another Year is
Ending
Here it is the end of
the year and
I'm wondering where
2011 went.
In a few hours it will
be gone, and I'm
remembering
just how it was
spent!
Did I try to be more
patient?
Did I grow closer to my
Lord?
Did I succeed in being
a better friend?
Did I always keep my
word?
Did I lose that twenty
pounds?
Did I better spend my
days?
Did I show people I'm a
Christian?
Did I try to change my
selfish ways?
Did I get involved in
life around me?
Did I seek a better way
to live?
Did I benefit from my
failures?
Did I learn how to
forgive?
Sadly, I admit that I
failed in
a bunch of these things
I've listed.
I can now see some of
those failures,
I most surely should
have resisted!
But, thank God I didn't
fail in
all
...thereby creating a
better life.
Yes, I know if I had
tried harder,
I could’ve avoided a
lot of strife!
So now 2012 is
beginning and
I can start anew from
here.
By trying harder, I can
do better
in this, the coming new
year!
Well, I
Could!!
