Our Only Choice
Today, my heart is filled with sadness;
from listening to the wrong voices;
such feelings can often lead to madness;
this life is all about choices.
It isn’t just about what we see and hear;
sometimes we just need to ignore;
it’s mostly about what we dread and fear;
often ignoring love’s open door.
We can only see; what we choose to see;
we’re all limited by our own mind;
our imagination reaches out to eternity;
that’s how destiny’s defined.
We’re the canvas upon which God paints;
each life begins as an empty slate;
we all start as demons; destined to be saints;
some learn truth early; others; late.
In God’s image; we paint our life story;
painting who we’re to become;
in the end; all our paths lead to glory;
divisions blend all into one.
We find ourselves walking the garden path;
facing those things we most hate;
expecting the worst; the Master’s wrath;
while approaching heaven’s gate.
We face eternity; with our soul in danger;
listening for our Master’s voice;
our death is the illusion of a manger;
love is our only choice.
