You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don't worry be happy! :)

We set ourselves apart,
We seal our ears,
And close our hearts.
We sin their sin,
Yet we ignore the burden,
And hide it within.
We claim to care,
Still we hide the gift,
We were meant to share.
We refuse to obey,
We deny our purpose,
And push God away.
Our hearts need to break,
For all the lost souls,
We can't just forsake.

The author's comments:
Too many Christians hide in church and fail to witness to others. So I hope this encourages more people to share their faith in love and help others find the one and only way to heaven...
