Flip Film

I was looking back through my life like one long movie,
from the corner of my eye I saw something that moved me.

I noticed millions of single frames running one after another,
each containing the elements which would make for the other.

I saw where temptation and desire in one frame would begin,
then in the next frame it was conceived giving birth to sin.

I stopped flipping through the frames in rewind,
and came forward again to this present frame of mind.

What elements of choice lay before me in this one single frame,
that in the next frame will not reflect anything of shame.

No longer do I see one long playing story of happenstance,
but individual clips where God gives us choice over our circumstance.

And then the fact that each moment in life had been framed,
reminded me of Jesus, the Director of this film so acclaimed.

Now when I flip though the pages of my life story,
I hope it'll show less about me and more of His glory.
