Voices Carry

Right from mans beginning things quickly went sour
As in came the sinning in being under satans power
It was mans own prideful freewill that lead him away
Even to this day he still hasn't quiet found His Way

In all that which was said then so divinely written 
Giving life to those who were dead or snake bitten 
It carried over all of those years to your very ears
Still comforting tears and chasing away your fears

It is spoken in dire times and such joyful occasions 
It's in each of my rhymes and all of my equations
It's the purpose for living and the reason to fight
To this day it's still giving in showing us the Light  

It's seems harder to obtain no longer at center stage
But still there it is, there so plain amongst mans rage
In what His Father expects a law for man to live by
Man always neglects then sits there wondering why

1 John 2:14	
I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him
that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men,
because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, 
and ye have overcome the wicked one.

That is why we should keep the Big 10, if we didn't have them we'd all be in big trouble! He gave them to us out of Love:)

So true Cheryl. Life is not an easy Road and often we may fall. But in continuing to keep our eyes upon Him and in building our relationship with Him we will grow within His Name. A gentle Father who loves us so much. A need, as his children, we all long for . Take care Cheryl and have a blessed weekend.
