From the words of American pastor and Christian evangelist, Vance Havner: “Life is a series of choices between the bad, the good, and the best. Everything depends on how we choose.”

Our daily walk encounters many tests
Life’s decisions shall never be easy
Facing a series of heartfelt choices
Sometimes feeling so alone and uneasy
Quality decisions lead life forward
God’s Word and righteousness always shining
Making choices, pleasing to our Father
Our Lord’s love, His sacred silver lining
God chooses our Savior—His Holy Son
Jesus becomes our faithful source of life
Bringing lasting redemption to ourselves
Hope-filled Cross saving the foolish from strife
Our Father calls many, few are chosen
His chosen, precious cornerstone—Jesus
Believing in Him, never put to shame
Living by faith through our Lord, who frees us
Jesus chooses us in His Father’s name
Days ahead offer bounties of treasures
Following His love and wealth of teachings
Therefore, bear lasting fruit through His measures

From 2 Corinthians 5:6-7: “So we are always confident; even though we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord–for we walk by faith, not by sight.”
My daily goal is to follow Christ. Great poem and reminder.

It sometimes seems to be easy to choose between the good and the bad, but not so easy to choose the good from the best. Your poem about faith makes me want to find that “best” through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
