What If the Day We Are Judged
Imagine that you die,
Then
The day of your judgment comes,
No, you are not judged in secret
But
You are judged in plain view of all,
Your loved ones that have left
Before you:
Grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters,
Friends, your darling, your priest, your teachers,
All those who thought you were a great guy.
You are sitting down,
Not knowing what to expect,
Waiting
Hoping
Praying for
All to be over soon in silence, and the
Sentence to pass and get what you
Deserve
But
Instead, you see your whole life to appear on
The most amazing, huge and cyclical 3D screen or
Even better in holograms
That
Are as real as reality could ever be
So
Every instant of your life, uncensored, is displayed for all to see
Thus
All what you have:
Thought,
Said,
Done,
In every detail, is presented and nothing is kept secret,
Every good and evil thought, word, act will be on hand
So, everyone, of the spectators will become a witness of
Your whole life, your actions, your motives
Then
When all is over and all have seen what you have ever done
You will be asked to judge yourself,
To pass the sentence you think you deserve,
In other words
To send yourself to Hell or to Paradise.
I do not know about you, my friends,
But
If things happen that way, as I am afraid they are,
To hell I will send myself without second thought
For
I strongly believe that I never had any right to commit
Any injustice, no matter how small or trivial, against
God’s order!
PS: Forgot to tell you there is no way to appeal your case
But
Always there is the possibility of redemption, if the soul,
Truly and honestly repents, before God and men alike
And
Humbly asks for mercy!
