Our Choices

God gave us bodies.
God gave us our voices.
God gives us opportunities to make positive choices..
We can choose to be selfish and only see our needs
or we can choose to help others and invest in good deeds..
We can choose to shine our light where the darkness prevails,
or we can join those dark forces and what that entails..
We can choose to be generous or we can choose to be petty.
We can be heart-centered or just be heady.
We can go with the flow and just keep on living or
we can stop to thank God for the gifts he has given..

Lovely Nancy I choose the last line. Wonderfully written with much truth and this one for me is a favorite to remind me to choose good over evil always. Thanks for sharing Dear. God bless you.
