Knowing The End Affects The Now - 1 Thessalonians 5: 1-11
God's word declares that the end will come
to know that Jesus will return
this is for the believer's comfort
believing your pleas, He won't spurn
Living here in the here and now
affects our endeavours to serve
looking upwards to the great day
turns us to follow on full of nerve
Remind ourselves of Jesus' sacrifice
dying in our place for our salvation

Childhood Affects Adulthood
Parents mold their children just like a pan to a cake
How ever you're instructed gives your life it's shape
What you're taught as a child you will never forget
Understanding the morals of others...
You will have a fit
Down from your failures to your major accomplishments
Learning responsibility on a job to timely paying your rent
Clueless that your parents

A TINY STORY WITH BIG AFFECTS
A person aborted her child at about four months along, closer to five months. She said the child was male, she said she just didn't want to be tied down.
This same person never conceived again. Throughout her life she made ways to undermine her sisters to their own children. This wicked undermining
caused problems for

Comfort Affects Effort
I don’t deal in rushed quotes,
I’d sooner I kissed goats;
Pirates watch spare seen boats;
Claim Rock in water floats…
I’m tied to paradox:
My Pride-of-Barbados,
Sometimes my Forcados,
While my mind is its box…
Now, it’s about Comfort
And its shaper Effort:
Comfort can block Effort,
I mean: check fresh effort,
Jehovah now your Fort…
Good cause to watch comfort
Or you won’t make effort,
Long hours spend

Novem: Affects IX in 1973
Nine college students record music
at some sheltered hideaway place.
They're killed in a van mishap,
on the way back to school.
Yond thirty-one years,
their songs recalled.
Sometimes fame
comes too
late.

Our Mood Affects the Colour of the Sky
The park sloped to a river behind trees
The other side was a large burial ground
Where my father’s body lay, bereaved
In the flowered park we sat and grieved
We heard the thwack of tennis balls resound
The park sloped to a river behind trees
Children can’t imagine mother’s pleased
When her

Aggressive Anger Affects Everyone
Our society is breaking
Because some folks seem like taking
All their anger and aggression
Out on others as they lessen
The love and kindness we knew
I need help finding a clue
As to why some folks seem
To be cruelish, rude and mean
One emotion in their heart
Has been darkness from the start
Blocking light to shine and be
Bright enough for us

Residual Affects
Residual Affects
There are effects that became residual;
For some could never be conventional,
And from day to day do vary and vary,
As cows diligently give milk in a dairy;
Hopefully environment is conditional.
Condition of environment is cause
of many things that are created.

Affects On Property Values
Affects on Property Values
If you are group who will maintain authority
Why must other groups exist with inferiority
And no matter what the group may say
End up having feeling with much dismay.
Up others authority may often try to butter
But when houses appear to be cookie cutter
To many facts ourselves will have to resign
In property values there has

Affects of Depression
Shortly to know
The heart is cold
And the pain is brought
Like thorns in which we hold,
Pieces die and fade
Tears flow behind the eyes
And death is made
Is it normal to be this hurt
Is it normal to descend a smile
Is it normal to look so ill
After a force of rejection
It only seems to be indirect
Imaginary weights suddenly

Affects of Rejection
When your rejected, by the one you think you love
It's like a spoken paragraph, without a bunch of fuss
On the outside looking in, it's not the big a deal
But when your inside, this is how it makes me feel
I am not good enough, both past and future have been better
Your lacking in something, and probably

Everything You Are Affects My Weather
The clouds fill up with all your fears
Then when it rains it pours tears
Your screams cause the North wind to blow
Your sadness brings a tornado
Now is the compass you can change forever
Everything you are affects my weather
When you’re calm it’s sunny and warm
When you’re hot it’s the eye of the storm
A happy smile takes a

Lingering Affects - (A Fictional Tale)
He wakes up once again
In a holding cell,
No one sitting near him
Due to his awful smell.
The policemen who have grown to know him
Come to set him free,
Knowing it won’t be long
Before he’s back in their company.
“Come on Joe, it’s time to go;
You need to stay off the juice.”
But they know that’s not bound to happen;
They
