The Only Thing That Matters

God asks me to spend my life opening the mind of others

however inept was I at those subjects learned in school

not knowing I was learning what I already knew

not knowing that I would be teaching what others already knew

but that is life; the truth better is learned not taught

for it is what we receive from God that matters

we receive His gifts which are our natural abilities

for which we must use to be charitable to those who are in need

for those who do not realize the gifts they receive

we are charitable with our gifts and hold God in our reverence

and share God’s Grace of Love and generosity
