An Original Work / October 24, 2020
I had a choice between two roads –
One was narrow, and one was broad,
One was honest, and one a fraud,
One of the devil, one of God.
I had to choose which one to take –
The road less traveled, will it do?
Or should I choose what others do?
Which will be false, and which is true?
I had to choose, for time is short –
Life on this earth not guaranteed,
For it can be cut off, indeed.
I had to choose, do it with speed.
So, choose I did, I made my choice –
I chose the narrow road as best,
That in Christ’s life I would invest,
E’en though I knew it’d be a test.
I made the right choice, yes I did –
I chose to leave my life of sin,
And let Christ Jesus to come in,
And follow Him until the end.
I keep on choosing Him, you see –
To daily choose Him, yes I do,
To follow Him now, through and through,
To do the things He did – me, too.
These lines in your composition seem to stand out in bold letters for me: ” Should I choose what others do?” “I keep on choosing Him.”
Love it!
You are really gifted in crafting poems and songs.

Rahjomuelvin, thank you for this encouragement. All the glory goes to God! Honestly, he feeds me the words to the poems and to the songs. All I do is record them.
I am glad that the poem ministered to you. Thank you for sharing that with me. Those two lines you picked out, when put together, give a very good message. Thank you for putting them together like that. Yes, it is a choice between following other people or following the Lord. Amen!

Amazing! How great is our God!
Yes, sometimes, I am torn between the two. but our gracious Lord always makes a way for me to keep choosing Him. Choosing the Lord Jesus Christ daily.
