ha-satan beckons
promising wealth and power
what will you decide?

invest in diamonds
mined in south africa
what will you decide?

buy dark chocolate
rooted in the ivory coast
what will you decide?

ha-satan tempts
promising wealth and power
what will you decide?

    It's scary to think we all have a price.

      Yes it is! And that our price is unreasonably low sometimes.

    I really like the open-endedness of this mediation on this day's selected scripture on the Lenten Journey. We, each of us, are the only ones who can decide--things of this world or things of God!

    I cannot believe I've gotten so far behind in reading your wonderful interpretations ... each day is a meditation in itself ... thank you! :D

      No worries! Life does tend to roll forward.
