The Sun and The Son

pldabbs



Our world spins, revolves and rotates around the sun

Our lives are well-spent, involved and rotate around the Son

Gravity keeps the earth close to the sun

The Lord’s Spirit helps man stay close to the Son

Gravity is a case of never-ending attraction

The Spirit keeps track of our every action

If the world breaks loose, the Sun pulls it back

When a man breaks loose the Son pulls him back

The first law is Newton’s...universal gravitation

The second law is the Lord’s...universal salvation

The first law is unconditional...it never will fail

The second conditional... lest man’s weakness prevail

The earth’s final status is unending duration

Man hopes to leave life with the Son’s approbation

  • Comment from author about the poem: Comparing our Solar System's Sun and the Son of God, each one's importance within the realm of his 'kingdom'. And how much they are alike in their purpose.

      Good write C.
      I wondered why it says ' The SUN of righteousness will arise, with healing in HIS wings...? Though some Scriptures do personalise things, as HE.
      Also, I feel the first and second law lines should be reversed. I feel that man who says its the FIRST universal law (gravity).

      Thanks for your read and comments. Yes, your 'SUN' could have been replaced with the other, I think. The order of the 'law lines' worked out better for me the way it is, plus the way it interacts with the next two lines.
