The Last Word

THE LAST WORD


You don't always have to have the last word. 

We think we do because we want to be heard. 

But sometimes its best to let go of pride. 

And walk away and leave it on the other side. 


In a world of polarity and divisiveness

There are some things we need not discuss.

That doesn't mean we should cower in fear. 

We can speak the truth in love though they may never hear. 


We all have a right too our voice. 

Whether we are pro life or pro choice.

But sometimes the arguments never end. 

It's okay to leave it there. No need to defend. 


We don't always have to argue with those on the other side. 

God is the one in the end who will truly decide

In the battle of evil and good. 

We can leave it there even if we are misunderstood. 


We dont always have to have the last Word 

We can leave it there, leave the pot unstirred

We have said our peace let God take it from here. 

He will have the last word in the end, making it all so clear.
