OUR ENEMY

Contributed by Lionel on Saturday, 28th February 2004 @ 01:24:39 PM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems



Destroy your own life? You can, you know.
Just feed your own lust, no caution to show.

Break all the rules, showing no restraint.
The wreckage will show like a circus clown's paint.

We all fear an enemy who would do us harm.
Desiring his exposure, we'll sound the alarm.

One evil and callous with malice in mind;
so look in the mirror, the danger to find.

We all, since the fall, can self - destruct.
By trusting our wisdom, and the phantom of luck.

The wrong path seems to be logically the right:
when God's word alone is the only true light.

If you should desire this destruction not begin,
beware the capacity to do yourself in.

There's one other thing you should remember too.
Pray to the Lord to make your heart new.

Prov. 16:25 " There is a way that seemeth right to a man, but the end thereof is the way of death."

Lionel

Wow, I didn't get that stuff about the war. I know this war though. I fight it every day. We all do. Nice write, Lionel.

Yes Lionel that is an efficacous shout like from St. John Baptist. Convert - turn around. So much needed in our day.
Turn the heart to God and all thiongs will turn out for the best.
Great reminder in powerful words. Just what is needed.
Providence always sends what is needed and He availed Himself of Lionel.
Be blessed
Love and peace
Elizabeth
