Sink or Swim ?

     Life is complicated —                                                                                                
      more so when you’re grown                                                                                     
 
        & out on your own.  

So many choices, so many decisions.  

And you’ll hear some suggestions— 

some friendly & light-hearted 

but some sent with a scowl 

or semi-friendly frown. 


You DON'T know

how deep is this water

or what else is down below

maybe swimming around.


How much curiosity can you spare right now ?

At least the sky looks pretty normal.

You want to just float around for awhile ?


Can you just relax ?

OR is this a good time to pray ?

The Creator knows about you—loves you.

Pay attention to your brain’s suggestion:

pray, say how you feel & what you need.


You DO know 

all these stars and planets didn’t just automatically appear up in the sky.

Like all the animals and humans on the earth,

we didn’t just gradually evolve from one speck of something. 

Appreciate this amazing world 

and accept the fact of life, followed by death.

                Look into the Bible and see.     

Eternal life in Heaven for those accepting Jesus as Savior.    + + +
