The Way
by Mark Heatherly

There is a man who is first & yet he will be last.

There is also a man who is last & yet he will be first.

There is a way which seems right to a man & yet it brings forth death.

There is also a way which seems to be foolish & yet it is most wise.

There is a path of least resistance which serves only to enslave & corrupt.

Another seems to be most difficult & yet it brings ease.

When once a man has ceased from seeking that which is for him alone,

Then he will realize an abundance in others.

Letting go to let god.

What a most blessed way.

It is a restless evil to seek out only for one's self.

For even that which is obtained cannot be kept.

Where there is selfish ambition there is disorder & every evil thing.

This is not the way.

But glory to God for His indescribable gift,

To expel & rid us of darkness, the selfish nature.

To walk in the light where blessings & goodness reside.

Choose you this day therefore, which way

The one is of self , it is corrupt in it's nature & brings forth death & destruction.

It is death unto death in it's conclusion.

The other is of Christ, it is divine in it's nature & brings forth overflowing life.

It is life unto life God's purpose & plan.

I make my writings available to all, but I would very much like to hear from those who have questions or comments or are built up & enriched & also from those who wish to use my writings for reprint.
