Psalm 50:10-12

 

Psalm 50:10-12

for every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird in the mountains, and the insects in the fields are mine. If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.

We are all His, but we’re not owned,

We aren’t without a voice.

We can walk with Him or alone.

For He gives us the choice.

He gave us laws to live life by,

But many turned away.

He doesn’t make them follow Him.

For we have our own say.

He modeled how we ought to live,

And was willing to die

That we might chose to follow Him.

Or we can walk on by.

The smallest insect in the field

Will answer to His call,

But we can choose to disregard,

Or not listen at all.

The greatest creatures of the earth

And those washed in sea spray

Will bow their heads when He appears.

But we can turn away.

The world belongs to Him in whole,

He formed it with a word,

But we can shrug, acting as if

We never even heard.

He gave us life, and redemption

And still gives us the choice.

So, let me leave no doubt at all…

I’ll listen to His voice!
