Protect What Is Forever

The world would like us to call it normal everyday chaos But the Lord our God says its evil gathering souls of the lost Death upon the innocent and violence against whoever claims Christ The only thing I can hold onto is they died believing he paid the price The images are shown to shock you and give you the sense hope is all lost Becoming dooms day prepper’s for the inevitable coming of the holocaust So you collect your canned goods, guns and ammo for your family’s protection Protecting what is temporary and forgetting about God’s promised salvation So before you batten down the hatches and load your array of guns Ask God to save you not from this world but from sin through the blood of his son

Remembering that this world is not where we will spend eternity. It is harsh images we are force fed, but the happy ever after is waiting. I enjoyed your poem, thank you for sharing. Hugs and happy thoughts, there will be peace and good, eventually
