The Test

As I sit here I wonder to myself...
Will I fail him or will I stand the test?
Two forces, one good, one evil, pull me
into two different directions.
The choice lies with me,
where I will spend my eternity.
One one side we have hate, malice and lust...
On the other we have peace, goodness and love.
If this is true, why is it so hard to choose?
Are we all blinded and destined to lose?
Father, as I sit here before the test,
I cry out silently to you...
"Please open my eyes, make me strong, and give me the humility
I need to walk a clean and holy life that is acceptable to you.
