NO TIME! NO TIME!! NO TIME!!!

I woke up in the morning,
checked the time and found
out that I would be late for work
if I don’t hurry up.



I quickly jumped from my bed,
got into the bathroom, brush my teeth, had my bath,
quickly prepared breakfast and left for work.

No time to pray and say thank you for a new day.

I got to work in no time,
quickly settled down and
start my work for the day.

No time to pray and
commit the day’s work into God’s hands.
Within few hours, it was time for break,

I hurriedly ate my lunch and relax for some minutes.
Soon, break was over and back to work,

I must ensure that my job for that day
was neatly done and completed as the
following day’s work would even be
more hectic and unpredictable.

Soon, it was closing time and
I tidy up my office and went home.

When I got home,
I was very hungry and quickly prepared dinner.

No time to say thank you
Lord for a successful day’s work

I ate dinner and since I was very tired to watch television,

I slept off. It gradually became a daily routine,
no time to pray and study the bible.

And before I knew it, time waits for no one.

I soon gave up the ghost and behold,
I was before an angel who welcomed me.

The angle said,
“You lived a good life on earth
and you served God very well.


You were also committed
to your job and treated others well,
but you never had time to communicate with your maker”

“No time you will always say,
and


so I wanted to write your name in the book of life,
but there was no time”


# I stood motionless and confused,
I wept and wept.

“No time, No time, No time,”

I will always say. Now I have the time,
but it was too late.

The message can't be clearer than this
