received the following in an email and thought its message was
powerful and worth sharing. Unfortunately, the author is unknown.
I
had walked life's path with an easy tread, Had followed where
comfort and pleasure led; And then by chance in a quiet place I met
my Master face to face.
With
station and rank and wealth for goal, Much thought for body but none
for soul, I had entered to win this life's mad race - When I met my
Master face to face.
I
had built my castles, reared them high, Till their towers had pierced
the blue of the sky; I had sworn to rule with an iron mace When I
met my Master face to face.
I
met Him and knew Him, and blushed to see That His eyes full of sorrow
were fixed on me; And I faltered, and fell at His feet that day
While my castles vanished and melted away.
Melted
and vanished; and in their place I saw naught else but my Master's
face; And I cried aloud: "Oh, make me meet To follow the marks
of Thy wounded feet."
My
thought is now for the souls of men; I have lost my life to find it
again Ever since alone in that holy place My Master and I stood face
to face.

Are you right with God? If not, we encourage you to do so. Don’t
wait – do it today! By ourselves, we are not worthy to go to
Heaven. But, God loved us and counted us worthy enough to die for us
and offered us the way to Heaven – if we accept it. Please see
