A RECIPE FOR A GOOD DESTINY

 

 

A Thought

Leads to,

A Desire.

 

A Desire,

Leads to,

An Action.

 

An Action,

Leads to,

A Habit.

 

A Habit,

Leads to,

A Character.

 

A Character,

Leads to,

A Destiny.

 

A bad thought,

Nip it,

At its bud.

 

A good thought,

Nurture it,

As I said.

 

Your thought of a drink,

Kindles a desire,

For a peg.

 

Your desire for a peg,

Takes you,

To the bar.

 

Your visit to the bar,

Leads you,

Drink a peg.

 

Your first peg in the bar,

Makes you,

A habitual visitor.

 

Your character,

As a regular visitor,

Names you, a drunkard.

 

 As a drunkard you're,

The day isn't far,

For your rest in the grave.

 

A thought of the Lord,

Creates a desire,

To see Jesus.

 

A desire to see Jesus,

Leads you,

To the nearest Church.

 

Your visit to the Church,

Makes you,

A habitual visitor.

 

Your habitual visit to the Church,

Converts you,

A devotee of the Lord.

 

You're, as a servant of the Lord,

Destined to His abode,

On the day of judgment.

 

Now, you know the recipe,

Of your own destiny,

To keep you ever happy.
