Not knowing....

not knowing what to say
I stumble for words, emotions on display
ask, and you shall be given
if ask we must, what's the point in believing
toil, and the reward be yours
toil they did, for blistered hands n feet n sores
pray, your voice HE shall hear
pray they did, must have fallen on deaf ears
what taught and told, most followed
suffering, as if in eternal hell, pride swallowed
sins of the Angels, HE not cared
like Sodom and Gomorrah, none is spared.
humanity, degraded, HIS name corrupt
blasphemy abound, not long, shall wrath erupt
souls to save, what to say
each word, for salvation, I must now weigh

Very good write, Suresh! I agree that "not long, shall wrath erupt". We live in very dangerous times.
Those words of salvation must be brought to the fore for all people. All will be well.
A fine write Suresh.
We say 'Why ask?' as it is written that 'He knows what we need before we ask Him'. Yet He wants us to ask, and we shall receive.
WHY?
I suppose it keeps the relationship going between God and man. Otherwise we might just sit back, and everything fall into our laps from heaven, as it were.
Orchi, from all your posting, I gathered that you have a strong belief in your believes, and in the literal word of the Old and New Testament. I have no intention of debating your bible, and having read all the bibles, including western and eastern bibles, I am thoroughly disappointed in the written word.
In the book of Genesis, the very beginning has multiple starts, as if the author has changed their mind multiple times.
I can send you a hundred instances in that book alone, in the first few chapters, is full of contradictions. Anyone who accepts the literal word as that of and by God, has never understood the meaning, and has made author more important than the message.
Anyways, to each their own,
Yes, Suresh, we'll have to leave it as 'each to their own'. Somehow it's changed to 'knowling?!'
it seems a storm has blown...... N
