As I meditate over the acknowledgement of the man I have become,
I see I have become a slave, to both heaven and hell. I am constantly being summoned, to perform their tasks, to bring glory to their cities. The bell rings by the hour, yet my decisions do not always come as so. I often feel trapped between desires, that come from both ends of a rope, being pulled in opposite directions. My past has deceived me, for that glory has withered like grass and melted like snow from the heat of the day, a temporary season that has past away. Knowledge takes away from what I believed was important as a fool, and at times gives truth of what is eternal. I grieve. I grieve over the truth that many fail to seek what is from above. They are slaves to hell, as I once was, and as I time and time again choose to be, with my foolish actions and selfish desires for instant satisfaction. The decisions that are made will shape a man into who he will become, and his choices will reveal who he is. I pray for wisdom to have the strength to choose what is best, And for the courage to follow through. Carter Chase March 12th 2017
