Who Decides
WHO DECIDES?
Curtis Johnson
YOU DID NOT KNOW THAT THE ANGEL WAS COMING TO TAKE YOU HOME?
THAT’S BECAUSE ANGELS RECEIVE THEIR ORDERS FROM GOD ALONE.
ONE COULD ONLY WONDER , HOW LIFE WOULD END, KNOWING WHEN.
WOULD WE LIVE AS WE PLEASE, BEING GOOD ONLY NOW AND THEN?
SHOULD THE LORD FORM A LONG LINE, AND LET EVERYONE PICK A NUMBER?
WOULD WE BE HAPPY, IF THE HOLY ONE ALLOWED EACH ONE TO DECIDE?
SHOULD LIFE’S LENGTH BE DETERMINED BY WHERE WE RESIDE?
WHAT IF GOD HAD SELECTED AN ANGELIC COMMITTEE OF FIVE ,OR TEN?
I DO BELIEVE THAT THE FATHER’S PATIENCE WOULD HAVE GROWN THIN.
SO LET THE WISE ONE SPECIFY WHEN IT IS OUR TIME TO FINALLY GO
THIS CASE MUST REST ,BECAUSE IT’S BEST, THAT WE SHOULD NEVER KNOW.
