The Choice 选择

分类: 英语诗歌 

 It's quiet. It's early. My coffee is hot.

    The sky is still black. The world is still asleep.

    The day is coming. In a few moments the day will arrive.

    It will roar down the track with the rising of the sun.

    The stillness of the dawn will be exchanged for the noise of the day.

    The calm of solitude will be replaced by the pounding pace of the human race.

    The refuge of the early morning will be invaded by decisions to be made and deadlines to be met.

    For the next twelve hours I will be exposed to the day's demands.

    It is now that I must make a choice.

    Because of Calvary, I'm free to choose.

    And so I choose.

    I choose love ……

    No occasion justifies hatred;

    No injustice warrants bitterness.

    I choose love.

    Today I will love God and what God loves.

    I choose joy ……

    I will invite my God to be the God of circumstance.

    I will refuse the temptation to be cynical…… the tool of the lazy thinker.

    I will refuse to see people as anything less than human beings, created by God.

    I will refuse to see any problems anything less than an opportunity to see God.

    I choose peace ……

    I will live forgiven.

    I will forgive so that I may live.

    I choose patience ……

    I will overlook the inconveniences of the world.

    Instead of cursing the one who takes my place, I'll invite him to do so.

    Rather than complain that the wait is too long, I will thank God for a moment to pray.

    Instead of clenching my fist at new assignments, I will face them with joy and courage.
