This is for the many who have made mistakes in their lives. If we could peek into the future, would we have made different choices in our lives. Would we have chosen a different path?
If we could peek into the future…
like slightly opening a closed door.
Would it affect our decisions…
or would we continue as before.
Would we get into relationships…
that will ultimately turn bad.
Or would we avoid the pitfalls…
that so many of us have had.
Would we make wiser decisions…
if we knew the future to come.
Or would we continue on the same path…
no matter what the foreseen outcome.
Would we wait till we’re broken…
with the devastation that it’ll bring.
Or will we grab hold of God sooner…
and for our future onto Him cling.
Just what would we do differently…
if through that door we could peek.
And what is it that we would want…
and what desires would we seek?
Well I don’t know the answer…
but it’s a question of “heart”…
for the desires of the heart…
is upon which we usually embark.
So think about it a moment…
and just what desires lie within.
Is it of this world or eternity…
for that is where our path will begin.

…we would have made better choices and have no regrets. Maybe.

I like this a lot…..we all make mistakes in life, I certainly have.
Thanks.Yes we all make mistakes. I would hope that we would make less.
Good poem; if only we see the consequences of our decisions before we make them, it would definitely leads us to make wiser decisions.
Thanks Pastor Jim. I would pray that we would make wiser decisions. I know that I needed to. But God’s grace and mercy is sufficient!
