Severely Grieved

Poetry
By A.Hope Smith

It's hard to get thru the thick fog of this temporal world.
So entertaining,
So amusing,
So sin sassy,
So lust attractive.

Mind and heart choose darkness rather than light.
People are fallen, their thoughts continually wayward,
dodging truth at every intersection.

Blindness envelops
the beloved mankind and
the Fathers heart
is
Severely
grieved.


(KJV)
Psalm 78:40 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness,
[and] grieve him in the desert!
Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God,
whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

"Crucified" by A.Hope Smith

Doubted,
Ridiculed,
Spit on,
Mocked,
Laughted at,
Denied,
Hated,
Flogged,
Whipped,
and finally Hung to die.

CRUCIFIED!

He forgave,
He forgives,
He's still forgiving.
Yet with each new time we sin,
WE "CRUCIFY HIM!", AGAIN.
I can feel what you are saying. I am in a point of life where I see people that should no God so well because of how they were raised. Yet they openly run from the truth. They defiantely reject the truth and the love of the Father. There are also those who have heard of the love that awaits the healing the new life and refuse it. I have found myself at times so weighed down by the pain of knowing I may get to Heaven and my brother or uncle or neighbors or the person who stood behind me in the super market may not be there. Its has hurt me. Though God has told me I should let that be the fire that propels me. I not only want to get people saved I must. Its a necessity like breathing like eating like drinking water. I cant leave one behind not knowing I didnt try to show there the way through Christ who is the way the truth and the light. Though they may not confess and surrender when I tell them, I hold dear to me what Paul said, (1 Corinthians 3:6)
I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. I will plant seeds and I know someone else will water and Jehovah will bring the growth

SEARCH AND RESCUE

We can almost hear the shuffling of the 3 angels of God, in heaven, readying themselves with a great flight toward earth,  for the soon-coming search and rescue.  This shall be a transforming time. May we be found faithful. The loud cry of Revelation 18 will be a powerful repetition  of the messages of the three angels of Revelation 14. Illustration ©  Review and Herald Publ. Assoc.
