God's Mystery

A heart and mind are molded,
By what they see and hear,
If you want to raise a child,
Who does not live in fear,
You can not be lukewarm,
There truly is,
Only right and wrong,
Everything in grey,
Is not allowed like people say,
If you want to go to heaven,
You can't do the unforgiven,
It isn't true that God forgives,
All that you do,
That's why there is a hell,
For those unforgiven few,
Few has become greater,
Than most people see,
It's part of the plan,
Of God's mystery,
People geared towards money,
And power and materalisim,
Really can't see,
What the devil is doing,
To steal your name,
From the book of life,
Is his game,
You can loose your soul,
And it's easy to do,
If you don't follow God,
You become one of,
Those few.

This is a soul stiring piece, yes we are living in a materialistic world, and the enemy is subtle in his work, and working overtime as well. His plan is to definitly erase our name from the book of life. he can't do it phisiscally, but he can allow christians to be cold and turn away from their maker. He is a thief and a robber, he would like to kill all of Godds people. But Jesus came to restore life abundantly VERY GOOD MSG. ABE

Some true statements here, very scary indeed. The devil is definately lrking in every shadow waiting, picking, and choosing his victims. Too many will fall prey to this hunter of darkness I hope I am not one of them. Great rhyme and flow to this write. Smiles from Lolita
