We Are Transitory. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

We are transitory.
We come and go.
We do not have
a permanent abode
here in this world.

The onlyhome for
us is in the presence
of God In heaven.

The time of fasting
is a time to understand
which is important
and less important.

For what do I give priority,
for God or for this world.

what do I want to change
what is burdensome,
heavy and dark for me?
Repentance, confession of guilt
lead me to a new life in peace.
