What Choice Do I Have?

I called.

You answered.

I prayed.

You heard.

 

I've reached the wood wherein the roads diverge.

And found the one less traveled to be narrow.

I've found the beaten path to be much wider,

But it descends into darkness.

 

I ask for so much and You always answer.

You ask for so little and I've yet to respond.

This takes faith of the mountain-moving fashion,

And mine could scarcely crush a molehill.

 

What choice do I have?

To rob You of what You deserve?

To take the road most often traveled?

That is no option.

 

If narrow is the way and righteousness the end,

I trust that it shall make all the difference.

This is really great man (shoot, everything you write is amazing).

I love this:
"I ask for so much and You always answer.
You ask for so little and I've yet to respond.
This takes faith of the mountain-moving fashion,
And mine could scarcely crush a molehill."

And I know that feeling all to well....

You write amazing stuff man.
