Just saying low
Just saying why
I have not much dough
Heaven is real
But so is Hell
No time
to find the right rhyme
Works beckons
In so many seconds
Life is funny
when your nose is runny
Just saying Hi
Im such a nice guy

Well I am not high but I will say Hi with MacBeth's sylliloquy which seems to sum up a life without the hope of our Savior.

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
creeps in this petty pace from day to day
to the last syllable of recorded time,
An all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death
Out! Out! Brief candle.
Life is but a walking shadow,
A poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more.
T'is a tale told by an idiot,
Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing!
Wm. Shakespeare

that's how a lot of us feel towards the end of our lives unfortunately. Yes I know jesus saves but in our hour of desolation we might feel exactly like this.
Ive felt like the worst actor on the cast. not sure of my lines. not suited to a leading role and not humble enough for a small part. in the end we just feel like bad actors. Ones who never quite found the right role.

But Macbeth's final speech which is so depressing but its like an opportunity to see God. At our darkest moment, there is an opportunity for God to enter. From rock bottom to being saved. But Macbeth doesn't get saved does he.

A politician on global warming said, "To support this idea is bad for business." No, if you have lived a life in peace waiting for the Lord, you are a saint. That feeling of not havaing done much comes mainly when we realizeonly God's works count, and if a person simply believes, he has worked...….....been kind to others, works, prayed, works...It is the quiet believers who help the most and do thw orks given by our Father.

As I approach old age, I am only 75, the days and weeks are a blur, but I consider this speeding up because the Lord is making everything easier for me........ This is in spite of any health issues which have become steps on that golden stairway… One reason I love the Sabbath of ouur Fasther is now the days between seem to vanish.

MaBeth may have had insurmountable problems, but we do not………..but you have always known this.

My understanding is it is life eternal is a futile thought of the unbeliever...……..Many suicides are the product of a broken heart, and our father says so many times "A broken heart I will not turn away." I musst cling and hold on to this pronouncement of our Father due to my father's suicide. I believe his heart was broken.
