Constancy is scarce in life
Although it's usual
In Mathematical and scientific theories
In life we yearn for an increasing ratio
In happiness,wealth, power and fame
These are great expectations,dreams
And greeds
In life we yearn for a decreasing ratio
In efforts
This is laziness
Success is propotional to efforts
Wisdoms and fate
And so a constant ratio is scarce
And an increasing ratio is scarce too
If without efforts, wisdoms and luck
If without conspiracy and scandals
The consequence is more obvious
And so
Don't just envy and admire
But try your best
And accept your rewards from God
And find yourself any pride
And find yourself any satisfaction
Nothing about death will be pleasing,
As the number is always increasing;
From God a gift;
Up He does lift;
Is now an angel in heaven singing.

His Ever-Increasing Unquestionability
I thank God for the continued growth
which always makes it harder to say,
"God, why you let this happen."
When great troubles come.
However, i still do get to that place
from time to time where I do ask,
"God, why you let this happen?"
I know that He is worthy of the glory,
honor and praise at all times,
and as He continues to bring
me from faith to faith
it gets harder and harder to question
Him, because every time I do
He just continues to prove
Himself over and over again.
Look around, it's so profound, increasing lawlessness as it abounds
Increasing lawlessness is everywhere, the unjust governments are so unfair
There is no equality among men, and on earthling men we should never depend
As it says at Jeremiah 10:23, you know this scripture, and you will agree
Man cannot even direct his own step, so why would you ask him
for any help
Increasing lawlessness, lawlessness increased, and you wonder if it will
ever cease
Jehovah says draw close to me, and I'll give you life eternity
Take my hand and see that I am good, I'll give you peace like I said I would
My word will not go forth without results, I'll give you guidance so you won't
be corrupt
O'ye of little faith, put your trust in me and you'll be safe
Increasing lawlessness, lawlessness increased, in Jehovah's due time
all crime, death, and war will cease
So we should not be surprised about what life brings, or what happens
in this system of things
Remember that Jehovah will keep us safe in our final resting place
