The Skin We Think We Own

We are all created beings from birth made in God's image even to our skin this skin we think we own as ours a great mistake this shows our sin God gave us this as all our body out of His common grace to everyone a great debt all owe to this God to ignore this we've shown we are done Now today in this modern selfish age everyone wants to mark themselves dark as this shows their darkened mind so clear folly filled just like those left outside the ark God's cry is to come in and be saved into His kingdom where righteousness dwells anew instead, they condemn themselves to the dark thinking they're are skinned full of tattoos God made man for His own glory not to let them go the darkest way for the Lord is light, His way is bright give Him His place, He'll make your day (This is written about some thoughts on the modern trend to fill one's body with tattoos, a body made by our eternal creator and heavenly father. )

I am guilty of owning a few small tattoos, something i did when death brushed close against me...i see people filled with them though and find it less attractive when most of their body is covered in ink...i think my boyfriends daughter now has 24 rather large haphazardly placed tattoos... good write! :) hugs

Gordon...fantastic message. Humanity is God-dense. He is hated, They never learned God's rules and honestly do not give a hoot. Pleasure is first in our world. Anyone who has spent time online is horrified beyond the tattoos. Our sports heroes look like horrid works of art. And our children adore them? They think it's cool.Cartoons are gross, too! Panagiota
