THE WORLD AND THE WORD OF GOD

In the beginning,  
It was just His word—  
A whisper that shaped the world.  
Light unfurled like a newborn flame
Tearing through the dark
Proclaiming His name.

Yet, with vision so clear
The world still stumbles
Blinded by fear and greed
Pushing past its bounds
Haunted by its shadow.

Sadly, the world is now lost 
Its grip on truth undone
Clawing for light
But redemption 
There is none.
