Slowing Down

Life is always moving, it never does stand still,
Sometimes it seems like a car without brakes, rolling down a hill,
And slowing down to smell the roses, is real hard to do,
The times that we can slow down, are far between and few,
But Jesus says come to Him all who labor, and He will give you rest,
For His yoke is easy, and He will make your burdens light, a whole lot less,
Sometimes I wonder if our hurry, is really just running away,
And we fear falling behind, when we need to live life day by day,
We need to just slow down, and let God have control,
And we need to walk beside Him, and to His hand tightly hold,
Life is too short to run through, we should seek God with every breath,
For in believing Him for our salvation, we will receive eternal life not death.
