He holds all
Open the door

The door to your destiny

What do you find

But a mirror

A mirror with no one but yourselft

You just stare at yourself

You wonder why your here

Why you believe what you believe

Why you looke the way you do

With these questions fresh

You steo away and close the door



You move on to the next door

You turn the knob

Yet you find another mirror

There's your life in that mirror

You want it so desperately

You look for it in everything that you do

You begin to pray harder than ever

It consumes you

Becomes your whole life

Then, you shut the door and move on



You go towards the last door

You turn the key and twist the knob

You find another mirror

This mirror is full of accusation's

Suddenly you realize your wrongs

Your mistakes

You feel remorse and regret

You close this door.



You turn from it with guilt in your heart.

What do you find

God standing in front of you

You run towards him for comfort

He embraces you

His first words to you are:

"Give up"

Your answer is why?

His answer is I showed you this for a reason

You became dependant on it

Give up your searching for other things

Search for me and you will find all answers



You struggle with this but you give up.

As he tells you.

As you told me Lord,

you have shown me everything I ever wanted to know.
