A JUGGLER'S LIFE / by Joe Castorino

I’m like a ridiculous painted clown,

Juggling to-do’s, up and down and

Back and forth, my life a frantic

Intertwining of past, present, future,

In a tangled jungle of multitasking,

Weighed down by the heavy stress

Of guilt over my imperfect past and

Of worry over unknown tomorrows;

But life is so much easier when I

Focus on the great I AM,

Living perpetually in the present,

Juggling one little ball at a time,

So I confidently brush off the past,

Which is totally washed clean in

The Blood of the Lamb,

And I patiently push off the future,

Which is in the loving hands of

The King of the Universe:

Blessed are the single-hearted,

For they shall surely see God.
