It's not too late

 It's not too late to prepare

...Until it is.

It's not too late to tell that loved one

about the Lord

...Until it is.

It is not too late to love others,

and do good,

and be the light 

we've always dreamed we could be

...Until it is.

Life and death 

pass without warning.

So many crumpled people,

hugging the ground,

unaware devastation was coming,

to their part of the world

...Until it did.

Don't let this stop us though,

from doing the most important thing

in our own eyes.

God forgive me,

and have mercy upon me,

and knowing that there will

always be tomorrow

...Until there's not.

Writing this poem caused me to feel convicted about the choices I make, believing there will always be tomorrow.
