Choose You This Moment
by David Pekrul

Age Rating: 10 to 127

 
Living among us,
Some thought he was weird,
Hair to his shoulders,
And sporting a beard,
Saying we’re brothers,
And we can have peace,
Wars keep erupting,
They never do cease.

Yet he keeps preaching,
“The time is at hand,
“Choose whom you’re serving,
Decide, take a stand”,
So few are chosen,
Yet many are called,
Very few seek him,
And more are appalled.

See, he is weeping,
For those who are lost,
Coming to free us,
Not counting the cost,
Down to meet Satan,
To capture the key,
Now he is risen,
So we can be free.

He is our Saviour,
The One, Son of God,
Though some believe him,
Some think he’s a fraud,
Choose you this moment,
Don’t sit on the fence,
God or the Devil,
The moment is tense.

There in the judgment,
He’ll ask us one thing,
“Did you take Jesus,
And make Him your King?”,
That one decision,
Affects every life,
Frees us forever,
So choose what is right.

One simple decision, to have faith in God's son... believe he died for us... and EXERCISE that faith (for faith without works is dead). One simple decision, is not that simple at all. Each one of us, each decision, another battleground in the bigger war between good and bad. Each decision we make along the way, yet another melee between the forces warring within. The fight is never over, the decision never final... for at any moment we can turn aside and change our minds and erase the good that's been done in us. We must constantly check our motives, ever test our mettle, and make a conscious decision to decide what side we're really on for luke warm water gets spit out, and fence sitters are destroyed along with the wicked. I'm sure there were a lot of "I was gonna get on that silly ark" thoughts as it began to rain. Let's not let that happen to us today.

Anyway, those are the thoughts that raced through my mind as I read this and for many moments afterward. I'm sure I'm not the only one that was made to think of their own lives and their own decisions while reading this work. Thank you for the reminder.

Beautifully and simply brilliant!

I am a Catholic Christian, but part of this poem reminded me of my own skepticism when it comes to orthodox doctrine and ecclesiastical arguments. You remind me that, for me, Jesus was a simple man who preached a simple message, with few words and no hype. That he, in fact, wrote nothing. That, in fact, when he walked the earth, there was obviously not yet the institution of "Christianity" to muddy his simple message. How radical in its simplicity and humility his teaching still is today! Do many of us truly follow his example and take up our cross? And would we recognize him if we saw him? On the bus? On the street? Do we recognize the Christ in us? You remind me that, whatever one's faith, to keep it simple.
