In The Gray

The world is never black and white

Though it might seem that way,
For in between the two extremes
There’s always shades of gray.
 
The question’s not, “do they exist”,
The question is instead,
“Do we accept the in between
Or Live where God has lead?”
 
It’s easy to live in between
The shadows and the light.
It means not having to decide
To stand up for what’s right.
 
It means hiding in platitudes
Instead of speaking out,
Relinquishing the truth you know
To the pretense of doubt.
 
We each must make the choice these days
Between the dark and light,
Or hide in ambiguity
Between what’s black and white.
 
Ephesians 6:13
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
