Poem
“Oh, Now, What Wind Was That”? As soon as I was born again the battle had begun, the devil’s plan to deceive, steal and rob from me the way God would have me to run. You see, he doesn’t do this totally out in the open but he twists and turns to suit himself the precious Word of God, and tries to put His church to sleep and, as you can see, many of their heads are seen to nod and nod. Why, they hear this “wind” and that one which brings a sweet tickling to their ears, and now they run to and fro wanting to hear more of that “wind” and begin to listen only to their peers. They forgot about their first love and His Word written as a love letter to them, for it was meant to guide, deliver, feed, and correct as they walk this world they now forget where they had been. One “wind” says, that they can live as they choose yet still be in Heaven with Him, but refusing to study His Word to find for themselves the truth and where they will spend all eternity depends. Yet another “wind” has set itself against the precious power of the Holy Ghost, saying blasphemous things about Him and His working of miracles and knowing some now can’t be forgiven for this makes me tremble the most. You see no one can walk our walk for us as the Bible tells us to work out our own salvation with trembling and fear, by trusting and leaning on Him as the only way which brings the presence of our Savior Who then will wipe away all our tears.
