Darlene Gifford Poet Rhyme

Jewels From Jesus

Jewels from Jesus
in earth and air,
sparkling in nature.
Oh see God there!

A sky of diamonds
A sun of gold
A moon of pearls
God daily unfolds.

Earth's beauty and treasures
no one can buy.
For the saved and the unsaved,
nature delights every eye.

To all, we are given
twenty-four hours of the day,.
to waste or to spend wisely
we all have our say.

But sooner or later,
death closes life's door.
Death comes to the rich
as well as the poor.

Whether one spends eternity,
in Heaven or hell,
depends on our beliefs,
so friend listen well.

The jewels of salvation are offered to all,
who believe in and accept Jesus' clarion call.
Your sins will be forgiven, and Jesus will say,
"Welcome to Eternity. I'll show you the way."
