These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Living All Ways

The times of life are finite days,
but evermore we'll live.
We walk each step in all our ways
with much of self to give.

These living ways are from The Lord
to gift our fellowman.
"God grant us to obey Your Word,
and do by Your Best Plan."

All ways we live our lives throughout
must be of God's Own Will,
that when we die there'd be no doubt,
each purpose we fulfill.

But what of errant earthly steps
is all of good for naught?
Have we destroyed the hoped-for next,
and all of God we're taught?

The living ways are by His Grace
made new forevermore.
In Heaven, there is one blest place
through Jesus, The Blest Door.
