Turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain. But I will teach you the good and the right way. (1 Sam. 12:21,23) |
Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season. (Heb. 11:25) |
The world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever. (1 John 2:17) |
I must decide. What shall my answer be? The world allures and beckons harmlessly; The Savior stoops and whispers lovingly, I died for thee! |
The choice is made. My heart must not divide, Part for the world, and part for Him who died; Henceforth may I be found close to His side Who died for me! |
