The Next Big Thing

We are looking to find something to fill the void,
When our lives have all but been destroyed.
Heaping more unto ourselves will widen the hole,
And it will consume and take over control.

The trinkets of the world pass our gaze,
And the world sings their praise.
We have taken the money we have earned,
And all because of that our money has burned.

We can fill the coffers of our need,
And still can be paupers indeed.
Consider Solomon and his life,
And all the things did cause him strife.

I know of something far greater than these things,
And all of the blessings of knowing Him brings.
He gave all the treasures of the world away,
And let us know of a better way.

So don't throw your life away,
When what you chose fades to grey.
The love of the Father worth far more,
And He, your life and soul will restore.
