God Will Not Be Mocked

GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED He sits high upon golden calf — invisible to naked eye. If they saw him they’d know the half. The mocking dragon waves goodbye. The red face of Moses turns pale. He descends the holy mountain. Harried stone tablets —downward sail! Quake splits earth with molten fountain. Serpent’s head crushed in mortal blow. With Living Water washed away. Polished idol no longer glows. The trumpet wounds! It’s time to pay! Ashen faces repent of sin, having witnessed the wrathful din. 2/5/2018

The trumpet sound can be glorious or agonizing! Praying many will choose to follow a merciful God!
