The Paper Trail
(c)9/3/11 Leslie Green
When we are born, our life is celebrated by a birth certificate
A piece of paper
All through Elementary, Middle School and high school your progess is shown on a report card
A piece of paper
When you graduate high school and college you get a diploma and degree.
more paper
When you get a job you are often over worked and underappreciated but you do it for??????
That's right, THE PAPER
At the end of this life your family is given the death certificate.
A piece of paper
So sad that our entire life is welcomed by, lived by, celebrated by and ended by a Paper Trail.
It's interesting that the Bible, the best selling book EVER, massed produced on gazillions of PAPER,
contains approximately 1,189 chapters, 31,173 verses and 807,361 words.
Most people do not truly live every day thinking about, living by and for, celebrating, appreciating,and valuing the pieces of paper that the Bible is written on.
What will your life's paper trail look like in the end?
Dear Leslie,
ReplyDeleteGod loves you being you and you ARE real. Be encouraged IN HIM!! Our paper trail at the end will read, Paid in Full by the the blood of Christ!
