choices


“Choose life so that you and your descendants may live,  loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and holding fast to him;” Deuteronomy 30:19c-20a

when we love you
more than our wants,
when we listen more to you
than to our temptations,
when we cling to you
more than those who
beg us to follow them
into anger and fear, we
do indeed choose life –
yours, not ours
