  • A choice when i was 7
    after i made a phone call
    i asked my parents what it meant
    and asked Jesus to save me

    it didn’t feel like a big deal
    at the time
    but nothing ever does
    does it?
    nothing ever does

    a choice when i was 15
    to help at VBS
    with children who didn’t have much
    but stole my heart

    a choice when i was 16
    sitting on the sidewalk steps
    i felt so out of place and different
    and told Jesus that was alright

    it didn’t feel like a big deal
    at the time
    but nothing ever does
    does it?
    nothing ever does

    a choice when i was 16
    to go to Brasil
    two weeks of drama
    teaching basketball and serving

    a choice when i was 18
    after seeing someone live the life
    to make a commitment to connect
    with the God who owned my life–daily

    it didn’t feel like a big deal
    at the time
    but nothing ever does
    does it?
    nothing ever does

    a choice when i was 23
    to live with arms wide open
    to have my heart broken
    rather than try to protect myself again

    it didn’t feel like a big deal
    at the time
    but nothing ever does
    does it?
    nothing ever does

    what choices am i making now
    that are changing the future
    forever
    what are the moments
    that will be frozen
    into eternity?
