Straight From the Heart

Sometimes I wonder why I weep, why those tears come
Such emotions from so deep feeling everything but numb
An uncontrollable fit as like something I never felt before
Confused I would definitely admit but it was God I'm sure

So there I would be with the tears flowing out of my eyes
Driving I could barely see but the peaking of the sunrise
I could never figure it out, though it had happened a lot
But I would have to be stout, works coming like it or not

And than one day I got a thought that came into my mind
Perhaps what I sought in the explanation I needed to find 
The reasons for those tears all those uncontrollable tears 
Was the reality of such fears that in reality no one hears

The consequences of such, of a society that doesn't care
One that has lost complete touch, but isn't even aware
That's why those tears come dripping down upon my face
Because more than some are going to miss out on His Grace   

Romans 3:24
Being justified freely by his grace 
through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Excellent spiritual piece!:) Just beautiful!You've expressed it all so well Vincent. And the Holy Bible is very clear about all this and yes, so sadly more than some are going to miss out on His Grace.So many regrets one day on Judgment day for millions and millions of souls and that's a fact that will come to pass.Wishing you a very lovely week!In his light God bless you!:)) D.

Sorry so late in reply. Thank you for your beautiful comment. Interesting Sept. 23 event with Virgo and 100 years after Fatima. The devil asked for more power and 100 years in 1874 according to the Pope back then. Time may be of the essence. Lord's Will be done. So many still are lost. The Lord called us sheep.lol. the dumbest of His animals. Take care. God Bless.
