When I get too busy, I miss meeting with You So many times, I’ve shortened my morning rendezvous Other things seemed more important to my worldly eyes They did not perfect me, or make me holy and wise
So many things to do-but there is a choice to make Eternity will prove true the road I choose to take If I decide to sow my seed into the realm of earth The harvest I receive will not have eternal worth
I want everything I do to show forth Your glory All my earthly deeds will then be my offertory Let them rise, like smoke, to give you praise and pleasure Then the motives of my heart will be my greatest treasure

Matthew 6:6 – “But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.”
Matthew 6:19-21 – “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
Luke 8:14-15 – “Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity. 15 But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.”
