Have You Turned From the True God

Have You Turned From The True God?

Think of the people of Israel
in Egypt long ago.
They were slaves, wanting out,
and ready to go.
Through Moses, God brought
 miracles to the land.
And promised a place of milk
& honey ever so grand.
By fire and a cloud,
God did led.
Proving himself, he daily
gave them bread..
They did something they
knew they shouldn’t do.
By worshiping a false God!
Not the God who's true.
The promised land in which
they later enjoyed.
Was invaded by other armies and destroyed.
Perhaps you’ve forsaken
the God of the Bible.
And are worshiping a false
god or a false idol.
Return to the true God
before it’s too late.
If you don’t…  Like Israel…
you’ll suffer a similar fate!
