Array ( [sid] => 15139 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => The gift Of Free Will [time] => 2003-03-29 06:35:00 [hometext] => The gift that God gave to us of a free will brings both good and evil deeds into the world, but without it our lives are meaningless. [bodytext] => Fortunately!
or unfortunately?
My Higher Power gave to me
freedom to use my will,
but,
He didn't make the best choices clear,
nor...
make my road smooth and easy.
Unfortunately,
temptations excite me.
Unfortunately,
I often choose them.
When I reap the regretful results,
there's no way to turn back
to erase them.
Yet,... fortunately!...
my Lord will forgive me;
He will guide me
and help me do better...
when...
once I turn to Him.
