No Short-Cuts
“Hot off the press!” “Climbing to Number One!”
Believing that to a higher knowledge we may come,
we feed on and drink in the enticing words,
but In deception we will remain obscured.
With what do we fill our minds with that should not be?
How will we know what we must flee
if we do not stay on the path of studying Truth,
or question and think everything through?
When there is no time to study the living Word,
to a short-cut we turn and then are lured
to feed on things that we do not know,
and drink from a poisonous bowl.
Drink from the Fountain of living water!
Eat of the Manna that comes from above!
Pray our hearts will yearn for Truth Divine,
and for the living Word to guard our minds!
