Risky Business

In light of yesterdays blog, here is a poem I wrote about questioning and seeing the business of choosing God (and His fire):



Risky Business

Once there was some risky business.
Business so risky, how can that be?
But be it was for me.
Was that all I could see?
Seeing was so hard for me.
Was there more hard work ahead for me?
Ahead was where I wanted to be.
Was wanting enough for me?
Enough could be fulfilling to Thee.
Is fulfilling me all just for me?
All just for me not for Thee.
Is not for Thee, helpful to me?
Helpful to me is not risky business.
Was not risky business what I want?
What I want is risky business.
Is what I want faithful to Thee?
Faithfulness is the beginning for me.
Is the beginning where I should be?
Where I should be is right with Thee.
Was not right with Thee beneficial to me?
Beneficial to me is right with Thee.
Is not right with Thee so much more for me?
So much more for me leads to truth with Thee.
Was not Thy truth plenty for me?
Plenty for me is fruit for Thee.
Is not Thy fruit upon me?
Fruit upon me brings risky business.

Was not that the plan for Thy risky business?
Risky business from Thee to me.
From Thee to me a trust, do we see?
We see a business built for Thee.
What business comes from me?
What comes from me is only the assistance from Thee.
Is assistance what you want from me?
Assistance to build a business for Thee.
Why is Thy business a risky one for me?
It is a risky one for me because not all believe Thee.
What more do all need to see?
Seeing is for me with Thee.
How can they see without Thee?
Without Thee there business flees.
How can you let them flee from Thee?
You let them flee because of Thee.
Why can't they stop fleeing from Thee?
You let them choose to flee from Thee.
Why choosing is allowed by Thee?
Thy word is a graceful choice for all to see.
Why do they pee on Thee, instead of see?
Their urge to pee comes ahead of Thee.
Can't they see the urge is not as important as Thee?
Importance is all I should see.
Why is importance such risky business for me?
Risky business is where I should be.
Where else should I be?
But Walking with Thee in eternity.
Risky business for you and me?
Risky business for all to see.
Risky business consuming see?
Consuming fire, risky business for you and me.

Risky Business
