P A G E 8 | N J R D I G I T A L - The Dash Poem (By Linda Ellis) I read of a man who stood to speak At the funeral of a friend He referred to the dates on the tombstone From the beginning...to the end He noted that first came the date of birth And spoke the following date with tears, But he said what mattered most of all Was the dash between those years For that dash represents all the time That they spent alive on earth. And now only those who loved them Know what that little line is worth For it matters not, how much we own, The cars...the house...the cash. What matters is how we live and love And how we spend our dash. So, think about this long and hard. Are there things you'd like to change? For you never know how much time is left That can still be rearranged. If we could just slow down enough To consider what's true and real And always try to understand The way other people feel. And be less quick to anger And show appreciation more And love the people in our lives Like we've never loved before. If we treat each other with respect And more often wear a smile, Remembering this special dash Might only last a little while So, when your eulogy is being read With your life's actions to rehash... Would you be proud of the things they say About how you spent YOUR dash? I know you've heard the phrase, "He's growing like a weed". People say this without even thinking about it. You know that weeds grow wild, right? That's a phrase we would never let anyone say about our children. You shouldn't allow the same type phrases into your hearing. The Bible tells us to think on things that are pure, lovely, and of a good report... that even means about ourselves. So today, I encourage you to speak positive and allow yourself to know what God knows about you. Amy I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 The Lord is my Shepherd. I lack no good thing. Psalm 23:1 The Lord is right here with me, an ever present help in time of need. Psalm 46:1 God has filled my life with good things. I can trust Him to satisfy me. Psalm 103:1-5 I am not destined for stumbling or destruction I have a noble purpose and a hope. 1 Peter 2:8-9 The Lord is coming. He will save me so I need not be anxious or afraid. Isaiah 35:4
