All In

Remember that the smallest seed of faith is of more worth than the largest fruit of happiness. - Thoreau

there comes a time

when we either fold or go all in

'cause faith ain't a game

and no matter how closely we guard our cards

there's always someone looking down who knows what we're holding

you've got to be willing to die for the music

Author's Note

"My actual life is a fact, in view of which I have no occasion to congratulate myself; but for my faith and aspiration I have respect. It is from these that I speak." - Thoreau

"Either/Or" time is when they separate the sheep from the goats. But tell me, what is this music we must be willing to die for?

[Pete]

the music is the grace of god and our faith. paul said, "for me to live is christ, to die is gain" - can't get much more all-in than that ... :)

Nice profound write Pete. I like this. I always find someone always has the upper hand.
