Such beautiful words, penned by Frost,
a journey that mimics our lives.
A choice to make of which road to take,
with one road less traveled by.

Every day we make choices of roads,
and we often will follow the crowd.
We will travel the road to despair,
and in sorrow we’ll then cry out loud.

We’ll beg for our Father to save us,
and in mercy He’ll reach for our hand;
but if we don’t change our direction,
His justice will make it’s demand.

Yet if we would choose as this poet,
we’ll walk on the pathway of right;
for the road ahead less traveled by,
is the road that leads to the light.

(Matthew 4:18-19)
'And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw
two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his
brother, casting a net into the sea: for they
were fishers. And he saith unto them,
Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.'
