I made a decision and started to
Walk down that aisle.
Lined with people
Waiting to utter a prayer of blessing over me
I walked and walked.
This is the greatest decision in my life! I thought.
It was certainly to be.
But, it’s not going to a bed of roses. That, in my heart I know.
I walked and walked.
No, this distance is nothing compared to the distance my Savior walked
To the Cross of Calvary
Just to redeem an unworthy sinner like me from the eternal depths of fire.
I finally reached the altar;
I fell on my knees.
I prayed and prayed for His forgiveness
Tears streamed down my face. Endless, they flowed like rain.
Finally they stopped.
I got up to my feet;
People around me were rejoicing! For angels rejoice when even a sinner repents.
That was my first experience with the love of the Lord. it stays vivid in my sea of memories
Daily, as I advance towards the day where I’ll finally meet my Creator
I’ve climbed the thin rope to reach the blessed One.
The rope snapped! Because of my faith which was as small as the grain of sand.
But pressing on, I found another rope and climbed
Up,
Up,
Up,
To heaven!
What a pretty sight. Pretty isn’t even the word!
It was breathtaking
Even more beautiful than your Nigeria Falls;
Your seven wonders of the world.
And I looked back.
That day which seems like yesterday.
That day I walked down the aisle full of people
I’ve never regretted
Maybe once, twice when I was discontented with life
But I know, my greatest reward
Is in heaven, where my Father dwells.
And I will be with Him forever and ever
Amen.
