Decisions

Going thru each day, feeling just fine. Not realizing my life, was on the line. Then out of the blue, I caught a cold one day. Not knowing that my life, was changing in every way. The loss of appetite, caused my weight to shed. The shortest of walk’s, I had learned to dread. My life force was drained, I had no energy at all. I couldn’t even walk, I could barely crawl. Not being able to breathe, cut off my oxygen source. The doctors couldn’t tell me, what was wrong, of course. I prayed every night for God, to take me out, you see. For deep down in my heart I knew, what it must be. The life that I lived, was full of sin. Sex, drugs, and rock & roll, I couldn’t win. I’ve not only hurt myself, but those I hold dear. I’m afraid to get close to anyone, or let anyone near. Because of my past decisions, I will die it seems. But I am not afraid, because he redeems. Now that I have Jesus, with-in my heart. I am no longer dead, nor torn apart. This is an awful disease, that I have, it’s true. But the Love of my savior, will see me through. I always thought that this, couldn’t happen to me. I pray that you will open your eyes, so that you can see. Be careful of the decisions you make, each and every day. The decision made right now, can affect tomorrow in every way.
