Fools Deny

Fools Deny



 



A fool denies Heaven on high



Denies that’s Christ’s alive



No God would send His Son to die



So that His slayers thrive



 



A fool believes but what he sees



What’s heard, to touch or smell



Seeking the things his lusts to please



His senses lead to hell



 



Always he thinks he’s walking right



His ways are far from wrong



Hoarding the stuff that bring delight



Singing the devil’s song



 



Dancing to Satan’s tune of choice



In orgies, drunk with glee



Heeding his master’s evil voice



Failing The Truth to see



 



So deceived by his wayward thoughts



Blind to Jesus’ love



He’s deaf to Heaven’s true reports



Showing The Way above



 



Though selfish is the heart of man



If to himself he’s true



He’ll see God’s love His graceful plan



Ordained for life anew



 



We’ll see how far we’ve gone astray



Our hearts will understand



Ceasing to walk one’s selfish way



We’ll see The Truth first hand



 



We’ll put the devil horde to flight



Well seek The Father’s will



With Jesus as our guiding light



We’ll climb God’s Holy Hill.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
