An Immoral Choice – v2

The mirror before us
the filter of Christ
His life before us
in this season of Lent

The choices He made
to become the sacrifice
to give His life
that we may have life

How do we compare
in the choices we are making
in what we choose to fund
who we lift up
and who are left behind

An immoral choice
to be greedy, stingy
to leave our neighbors
out in the cold
