Disclosure
Some question if there was full disclosure
When we decided to follow Jesus to this earth.
Were we told the nature of mortal exposure?
Did we know the challenges beginning at birth?
I doubt not that we made an informed choice,
And were, indeed, told of what we’d confront.
The truth likely came from God’s own voice
Lest lack of knowledge give cause for affront.
So we took the fated step with faith affirmed.
And bravely entered this formidable estate,
Where Christ-like acts our decision confirmed.
Though evil acts by some showed another trait.
On a coming day we must give God a full report
Of how we did living in this mortal sphere.
The righteous will garner His blessed support,
And those who erred could have much to fear.
Yes, I know this worn Sunday School sermon
Is simplistic, naïve, juvenile, and out of fashion.
It is mocked by the elite and some in ermine
But those next to God embrace it with passion.
