Quandary

Midst quandary in choosing what is best Among varied alternatives offered My soul seeks God, Author and the Source of light Toward optimum functional pursuits. Perplexed with guilt causing unrest of heart Condemning me to languish in failure I beseech the Saviour for His mercy Toward another start with renewed peace. Overcoming confusion woes and doubts My faith clings to the Lord Who illumines Anchored upon His immutable truth Toward steadfast commitment, smiting doubt.
Toward triumph against dilemma’s pain I thank Christ for stewardship’s wisdom* gain.
*James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. September 29, 2021 Modified quatorzain with blank verse and couplet 2nd place, " 'Q' Contest, NEW ONLY" Sponsored by Constance La France; judged on 10/4/2021.
