God Will Show the Way

GOD WILL SHOW THE WAY

God says one day the world will burn
With all her shameful sin
Yet still the masses fail to turn
And bid God’s Son within

We wonder why God fails to call?
Save husband, child, or wife?
Why Jesus fails to save them all?
Why God won’t give them life?

Not all will come, it’s sad to say
Yet God; is not to blame
Many are called, but many stray
To live their lives of shame

It’s not for us to question why?
The Lord is sure to know
Of course it’s hard to see them die
Knowing just where they’ll go

Still God is true in every way
His judgement’s always sound
For those in faith, who seek and pray
True life in Christ is found

Christ came as Lamb, that all may share
The life He died to give
But first we need to love and care
Learning His! Way to live

For faith! We must receive God’s word
Through faith! The Truth we’ll see
Through Faith! The Shepherd’s voice is heard
To set His people free

God’s wisdom comes to understand
Knowledge to those who pray
True Light; to shine in every land
To show those lost, The Way.....

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.
