Every Hope

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Proverbs 14:12

there are many kinds of right,

many kinds of wrong,

many elaborate illusions and myths,

all of which seem correct to a man,

all of which fade with time,

like early morning fog,

rapidly disappearing

before the approaching

noonday sun;

there is only one right,

there is only one truth,

there is only one way

leading to life,

all others lead to

destruction and death;

there are no other choices,

no alternate paths,

no other name by which

a man might be saved;

in the end there is

outer darkness,

or there is You;

that is the truth,

those are the choices,

despite how hard so many

wish to believe otherwise;

You have delivered me

from dark prisons

where only sadness and

sorrow live,

You have pulled me up

from pits of decadence

and decay where hope

does not exist,

You have restored all

that was lost in the darkness

of the night;

there is nothing more that I desire,

nothing more that I need;

You have provided all that I require,

You have fulfilled every dream,

You are my every hope,

You are my everything;

thank you Lord.
