People running everywhere
except towards the truth
each generation right in their own eyes
The young ones hating everyone
the aged mistrusting youth
separated by the Devil's lies
Finding short lived happiness
yet knowing something's wrong
they seek delight through alcohol and dope
Protesting through rebellion
and speaking out in song
For them the world's tomorrow hold's no hope
'Why was I born' the poor man cries
'What kind of life is this?'
For him - to live is agony
To die is almost bliss
While the rich man turns his eyes away
from the beggar at his gate
as selfishness and greedy gain
begin to separate.
But is this as God planned it
when first the world began
Oh no my friend. God formed the earth
but the seeds were sown by man.
Be not deceived: God is not mocked: For whatever a man sows
that shall he also reap. For he that sows to the flesh shall of the
flesh reap corruption. But he that sows to the Spirit shall of the
Spirit reap life everlasting.
Galatians ch. 6 vs. 7 and 8.

Powerful closing line, Brenda. God have mercy on us. God have mercy.
It's a wise poem! I like it. Thank you, Brenda!
Hi Sandi, Amen , our God is very merciful and very loving to send His precious Son to pay the price for our sins.
For some reason I can't get your russian name up in English. Thank you for your kind comment.
I agree. Great ending (sadly).
God bless.
Hi Iryna, just found a translation of your name. Thank you for your kind comment.
Hi Victor, yes, sadly many of us are ruining what God has formed, both physically and spiritually. No wonder the Bible says that the earth is stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgement and destruction of ungodly men.. God bless.
Very true, Brenda -- the evil unfolding around us is just as God's Word predicts for the End Times. May we sow the good seed of the Gospel, as you do so beautifully in your blog.
God bless you, Brenda!
Laurie
Beautiful blog
God bless always.
You too Victor.
Hi Brenda,
We shall reap what we sow -- may it be good seed to bear good fruit. May God bless you and yours,
Laurie
Hi Laurie,
yes, may we always sow good seed to bear good fruit in this sad world. All the things going on around the world now definitely appear to show that we are in the end times. God bless you and your too Laurie.
Hi Brenda,
Praise God that He has given us an abundance of seed to sow! May we work diligently while it is still daytime. God bless you too!
Thank you Brenda,
I am so glad that one day He is making alle things new,
Lots of Love,
Aritha
Hi Aritha,
yes isn't it wonderful that when we believe in Jesus, and act upon His Word, we can have access to eternal life. Lots of love to you Aritha, God bless.
Real hope is only in Jesus!
That is right David, that is why God sent Jesus to be the sacrifice for our sins. God bless.
