How Much Should I…

If it were possible to achieve the attributes of BFT – Belief, Faith and Trust then do what you can. Once you have wisdom then, wisdom teaches you the importance of these characteristics. Wisdom had invited us to seek it early and if we do so earnestly, we will find it.  Having found wisdom then these other traits will become almost second nature. It is having them that we will know how much you should extend yourself.

How Much Should I…

Have belief, faith and trust?

On who do I favor and who disgust

When do I give up or give in

Make amends for those wrought in sin

Use old experiences to measure today’s path

Criticize other opinions and choose when to laugh

Hold to standards when exception begs

Stop others shoving into round holes their square pegs

How often should I hear apologies

Or succumb to those who start with please

Use kindness and forgiveness when people deliberately stray

Let my forbearance excuse those who disobey

Do I just have Belief, Faith and Trust that all will be well

I don’t know whose bound for Heaven but I feel sure whose bound for Hell
