Servant of God

Death has no conscience death has no friends. Every saint and sinner will be visited by him. Death hides in the wings just stalking his prey. Death is your shadow only a heartbeat away. The rich and the famous the poor the unknown. They'll be no hiding place when God calls us home. Death will greet everyone for all things must die. Life itself will disappear in the blink of an eye. But deaths not the end death is nothing to fear For death is only a servant of God who leads us to heaven from here.

A lovely poem brother John. No one lives forever, who would wish to anyway. Knowing that God leads us to His home in the sky, is a blessing to the world, you and I… Sis Beryl

Love the message here, John. And it's TRUE. Death, like everything else, is but a message of and from God. Brilliant penning here. Thanks, Gershon

- The shadow of death: you can't fool death... what comes after death is a question that has been debated for thousands of years, and there is no clear, scientifically confirmed answer, John... but several different opinions... - it's a good thing to believe in something beautiful :) - Lovely written :) - hugs
