Split Second

Well this is just something I wrote really spontaneously last night, and felt like posting on here. It's a challenge to myself and others, both Christian and non-Christian alike...

Split Second

In the click of a finger
the blink of an eye
There is no doubt
that in just a split second
life can pass us by

(Coz) You thought you had some time
Time to enjoy 'life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness'
But that pursuit was in vain
As you attempted to gain
material wealth and some element of fame
doing just about anything
to make yourself a name
Yet never could you have imagined
it would come down to this,

The voice of the doctor saying
'I'm sorry to tell you, but you have cancer'
Forever leaving you with those words ringing in your ears
Or in those final moments as you
lose control of your car and wait
for the crunch of metal against metal
in a head on collision
Nor did you ever consider that just
being at the wrong place
at the wrong time
Could wreak such havoc
in such a short space of time.

In the click of a finger
the blink of an eye
There is no doubt
that in just a split second
life can pass us by
So take every second, every minute
every day
And give God the glory for who He is and what He's done
For TODAY is the day to
Seek God, Live Life, and Impact the World.
