Renewal Or Folly

Vain mankind, you measure and image objectives You build, and tear down, errect and level the fomer, Lauded structures, become despised, as you search For validation ' as you sense the cold expanse of Eternity, and its structure ' always expanding it has no Base known to humanity.' Man cannot fathom or weigh Its complexlity, its simple existence mesmerises us As we struggle with basic human needs.' As we value That which we posses. Yet will never own.' As so many Elevate themselves to claim kingship, to promote war And to control, they are lost in their aging..in the shell Of decompisition, they place their trust, plot courses And yet know they must depart.' For God is tearing them Apart, dissasembling, to cast away the dross, to reshape The clay.' Man rages in vain against his creator; he copies And yet curses, denigrates others to obtain more yet Will never own more..More than a chance! a one time Opportunity to recieve enlightenment, through Jesus Christ, the gift of God, the Holy Spirit wafts and waves Over us morning and night.' Awake to salvation embrace The light.'

God will indeed tear down mankind's nightmare of a world under the evil one's command. It will happen sooner than many imagine. Interesting write joe
