The Favoured Son

The story of the devil is the story of all men we make mistakes the favoured son Given to much the son becomes spoiled believing everything they say We allow them to get away with lies the spoiled child will twist the knife of hate Thinking they above the rest knowing you are in their pocket they attack knowing you will support their faults There is only one way My way or the highway the child making demands breaking toys knowing you are blind to their faults God favoured the devil treated the devil as his favourite son the devil came to believe That he was better than God the spoiled son the favoured child blind to their faults we fail to punish their mistakes we fail to push them to succeed we put them above others I watched as Jason refused to go to school his Grand mother supported him he was allowed to stay at home other kids questioned his desire to play when school was over punching then his mother as support punished the child that had been punched Jason grew up to lie the spoiled son you do your child no favour all people should be treated equal and yet they're not treated equal expecting fair they learn to share the favoured son turned against God thinking himself better he fought for power you are not good enough he said I should have the power God created the Devil God favoured the Devil God believed in the Devil only one hour before the fight began We put our heart and soul into caring for our children and then within a heartbeat their actions can change your life forever
