A right attitude

Post by watcher »

Not really related to haiku or animal poems, but I hope you like it anyway...a first attempt for a long time. :oops:

Will I or won’t I do the right thing?
Will I or won’t I follow through?
Will my mind explode through thoughts I can’t control?
Will I fail to finish my race, and be left at the side of the road?

Instead…I remember Your faithfulness…for You have promised.

So, with You…
I will finish what You have begun.
I will have a sound mind.
I will reap what I have sown.
I will do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
I will conquer completely!
I will live to finish out my days…
I will love you forever,
I will win the race I have started.
I will see your face at the end,
I will complete all things through Christ!

choices

Post by watcher »

Moses,

Our life is full of choices isn't it? We choose our church, our religion, our kids' activities, and sometimes our friends. I hope I've made good choices overall in my life, but, I believe in this area, God chose me, for which I am truly thankful! In John, it says, "You did not choose me, but I chose you, that you may bear fruit..." Thanks for your always good thoughts and sharing! :D
