Between You and God

Between You and God
by J. Wester
A new twist on my favorite quote by Mother Theresa
 
 
There may be a day when all the seeds you plant will either rot, wither, or get eaten;
Plant anyway.
 
There may be a day when you are asked to do something above and beyond your skills;
Try anyway.
 
There may be a day when a friend needs more than you think you can give;
Give anyway.
 
There may be a day when no one smiles back at you;
Smile anyway.
 
There may be a day when you fear the coming day;
Greet it anyway.
 
There may be a day when you give your heart away and it may be broken;
Love anyway.
 
There may be a day when your faith in humanity is shaken to the core.
Hope anyway.
 
There may be a day when you wonder if prayers are answered;
Pray anyway.
 
There may be a day when you are struggling to know if God knows you;
Believe anyway.
 
 
"You see, in the final analysis, it's between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway."
