“Now listen! Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in his ways. …”
Deuteronomy 30:15-16 NLT
Money
possessions
power
prestige
give only fleeting satisfaction
blown away with the wind.
Now listen.
be still.
there’s a decision to make.
Choose faith despite fear
put love before hate
replace judgment with grace
for God’s mercies are great.
It’s time to surrender
throw hands up and give in
raise the white flag
be satisfied in him.
