Seek His Face

We have one life and should carefully measure
All that we do, for life is a treasure.
Only by wisdom and prayer make decisions,
Lest if they're wrong we can't make revisions.

Sometimes results will lead to wrong course
And cause us much sorrow, pain and remorse.
Lives can be detoured and suffer high cost.
Resource and time, e'en health, may be lost.

Hindsight is great but "after-the-fact".
We need God's wisdom and lead 'fore we act.
If we're not sure, we should hesitate.
Our God will guide us... it's better to wait.

"Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me."
Psalm 63:7-8 KJV
