IT ONLY TAKES A MOMENT

It only takes a moment for a small
Light to illuminate a darkened place.
It only takes a moment to show cruelty
That time and distance can't erase.

It only takes a spark of hope
To see light at the end of the tunnel.
It only takes a moment for a thunderstorm
To create a tornado funnel.

It only takes a moment to judge
Someone you have no right to judge.
It only takes a moment of rage/anger
To injure someone and draw blood.

It only takes a moment to show
Someone kindness and care.
It only takes a moment to check
On someone's health and welfare.

It only takes a moment to smile
And fill someone with cheer.
It only takes a moment to calm
A child's very real fear.

It only takes a moment to feel
And share God's love and grace.
It may only take a moment and
You may see Him face to face.
