Choose
Yes, I feel harassed
But I choose not to be embarrassed
Nor ashamed by a disability,
Temptation nor fragility.
But with creative loving
And with praises I sing.
You had me worried
Stressed & hurried
So I command it to leave me
I choose to be free.
What you don't know is true:
Jesus in me loves you.
Positively is a must!
Keep faith and trust.
Choose to turn the page
Let go of rage
You didn't have a clue
But someone felt demeaned by you.
They were ignored & hurt.
Your words were curt.
Repent; you must!
Regain their trust.
Choose to know
How to let love flow!
Let go of your ego
The rejection will also go.
Self-righteous indignation & more
Tries to open the door,
Takes you to task;
The root cause to mask.
But isn't it their choice
To react to your voice?
Or didn't you know
You reap what you sow?
Only God will repay
With justice someday.
He can fill an empty heart.
Give you both another start.
Choose to be around;
To be found.
Begin to pray
Choose this day!
