we die
failure to believe God's unfailing love
we die
death surrounds us
within and out
There is death
We don't know how to live!
it is sin
it is sickness
it is disturbing
we feel it
we think about it
yet we don't understand it
we don't recognize the problem
for what it truly is
we remain burdened
trapped within our bodies
and our minds
unable to break free
and get past
our hurts, our anxieties,
our unbelief
For God so loved the world
the world of you and me
the world of people burdened
and lost, roaming here
and there, seeking,
searching for love
It is there, here
in our midst
God has said it
We must turn away from all
that comes against us and
turn to The One who brings us
truth and hope and love
and believe.
The freshness of life
and goodness
cascading upon us
Christ overcame the darkness
to bring us to the light
because of God's love
given
today
tomorrow
and forevermore
Choose to accept
Choose to believe
Choose to be His child
Choose to be loved
Choose to know His love
or
Choose not
and remain shackled
in the chains
of unbelief.
