From Deuteronomy 30:19-20: “Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying Him, and holding fast to Him, for that means life to you and length of days, so that you may live in the land that the Lord swore to give to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”

Choosing to follow
Father’s divine Word
Walking in His ways
Heaven’s light unblurred
Cherishing each day
Father softens heart
Guiding Spirit’s breath
Truth offers fresh start
Taking trusted path
Father’s saving grace
Perishing no more
Hope’s refreshing pace
Strengthening faith’s roots
Father’s tender hand
Living waters shine
Darkness cannot stand
Observing sin’s filth
Father sends His Son
Washing away debts
Mercy breathes through One

From Psalm 1:1-2: “Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked or take the path that sinners tread or sit in the seat of scoffers, but their delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law they meditate day and night.”
Walking, trusting, living, cherishing, following, observing, washing away our sins…MERCY!! Richard, your poems always touch my heart! Hallelujah!!
