Timebomb

Tick tick tick..... it seems like the earth is a giant timebomb ready to explode at any moment.It is so very...... dark, decaying exponentially to the point of no return.Seems as if it is ready to burn.So many men totally out of joint,with their fingers they point at something, anything other than at themselves. They are like volcanos, ready to erupt and spew as they agitate and stew not really knowing what else to do. They only know that they want more than they have.Getting it, even through senseless war, would be a salve. Ironic, isn't it, that what they are truly searching for is peace. Although this they may not admit.And yet they attempt to get it at the end of a gun. But that simply is not how it's done.If they could just hide their pride and see that the battle has already been won. Satan, the wiley villain,was soundly defeated long ago with the help of a rugged tree that became a cross.Christ's gain was Satan's loss, but oh.... it came with such a cost.All so we, His own special creation, would not be lost for all eternity..... oh yes, the most glorious day in man's storied history. Victorious Lord, you have promised to return again to rescue all that sincerely embrace what you purposed to accomplish for us at Calvary.So come quickly Lord. Save us from ourselves and complete the plan as it is meant to be...... so that we might spend eternity with Thee.
