Something to think about....

In the fall of our race
may you fall into grace,
assured in each step 
as you seek for Gods face. 
The road has been long
and you've traveled so far, 
without ever knowing
He's right where you are.

With the sound of your voice
you have only to speak,
ask for the promised 
forgiveness you seek.
He'll never deny you,
a God of His word,
no matter the lies 
of the devil you've heard. 

Eyes become opened 
in all that you see,
taking new meaning 
from what used to be.
Fear of you losing
your life will be lost.
His blood paid the price
of your salvations cost.

If you haven't already
it's time to slow down.
Open your heart,
take a good look around.
Everyone's soul
has an eternity,
the choice is your own
of just where yours will be.

Wait till the last
and you take a great chance,
Once the music has stopped
you have finished your dance.
The end of a lifetime
no one ever knows.
Not making a choice,
in the end, means you chose.

                     - Jeannie Minor
