Cozy Grey

COZY GREY

Black muslin bitter truths,
mesh with lies of white silk.
Far too many since our youth,
weave a heavy crazy quilt.

While the sands are sifting quick,
we no longer seem to care.
Life's become one big parlor trick,
while sitting in the easy chair.

Looking out of tinted windows,
thinking back to the lost days,
while the pile of regret grows,
we hide among the cozy greys.

It's seldom we find life's balance.
as another day turns into night,
behind curtains on the valance,
of consequencial black and white.

author's notes:
Life can be a whole lot sweeter if we know
our boundaries and our expected inheritance.
The expression, "Let's not go there!", is a wise
one in some situations. We can save ourselves
heartache and energy if we seek God's will for our
path. The Israelites took decades to figure this out.
They had a "wilderness mindset" and couldn't
accept the grace that would set them on the
mountain top. Sometimes, we need to "go there",
even if it is just spiritually to get a revelation from God.
Often, God expects to move and not wait,
and He will tell us clearly in our heart if we listen.
God never left his people hanging without direction in life
when they were obedient. God has guidelines for how to live.
Grey is the only color missing from His heavenly crayon box.
There is no guesswork in the Bible, it's easy to understand,
all in black and white. Political correctness is made entirely
of grey areas that make excuses for sin,But God makes it very
easy for those who want to know.

Psalm 16:6 God's Word Translation 1995-
Your boundary lines mark out pleasant places for me.
Indeed, my inheritance is something beautiful
