Balance

By Appreciable Goodfaithpoet

We must remember in our life
As things of devotion loom,
(Even a husband or a wife
can lead us to our doom.)

Nothing should obstruct
The love we have for God.
His words alone instruct
lighting the path that must be trod.

If we focus only on earthly things
until they push out the rest,
Our poor heart no longer sings
and our life cannot be blessed.

If we make something else our God
And Lord, don't worship you.
Our future will be flawed
And we'll loose our new God too.

Yes, darkness flees from light
and no matter what we do,
we either choose what's wrong or right.
We cannot be both false and true.
