”The Dash!”


“So one of my dearest friends from home 🏡 in West Virginia sent me the video this morning and the lady was reading the marvelous poem called The Dash.Amen..and I’ve heard of it quite often..and I’ve read many times but this morning I found it to be very fitting to say the least..for our dear son Anthony’s birthday 🎂 is today..Amen..and as I read the poem yet once again it always takes my mind and heart to the word of God as it speaking of our lives and at how fleeting that they truly are..but the scriptures says this..that we know not what tomorrow will be..for what is your life?..for it is merely but a vapor that appears for a little time and then it vanishes away..(James 4:14)..Amen!”

”And I thought 💭 boy how wonderful it would be if we all did this way..if we all did truly consider how sacred our lives are..how that we do know not what our tomorrow will be..if we will still have our loved ones with us..Amen..because for some they live as if they’ll live on forever..Amen..they think 🤔 that what there doing and all the things is the important things of life..considering our homes 🏡 our jobs..our money 💴..all the things..and we stress ourselves completely out all the while making no time for the things that are truly the most important and valuable in our lives..which is our families..our friends..our neighbors..our community..our church ⛪️..Amen!”

”So my whole heart ❤️ and my whole prayer 🙏🏻 for each of us this very day..is we love 💕 like never before..that we forgive like never before..that we say yes way more than we say no..that we watch our words and how we speak 🗣️ from our own mouths..that we truly do know that our words are powerful and that death and life are in them..(Proverbs 18:21)..Amen..I pray we count the cost of our actions and how we treat others..for if by chance one ☝️ would go on home to glory to live forever in eternity with Jesus..Amen..that we stay focused on the true meaning of life..that we get not side tracked or caught up in this world 🌎 and all the things that they say we need to do or that we’re not doing..Amen..because true success lies in each of our dashes..and we chose how we are going to live them..Amen..for the word says there is a time and season for everything under the heavens..a time to be born and a time to die..(Ecclesiastes 3:2)..Amen..so let us pay attention to that tiny little dash..and let us all do our best to live it out well and do our very best indeed..Amen!”

”For it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen & Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤️
