Abide by what the elders say, Listen to them as you obey; Give them dignity and respect, As what they say do not reject. So you must also serve others, Serving them as older brothers; God opposes an attitude, That is both arrogant and rude. But rather be humbled instead, Always happy and not to dread; So when the time becomes just right, God will honor you in the light. Give God all your anxiety, And He will give you dignity; That is because He cares for you, And wants to be helping you through. Please keep your mind clear and alert, So you will be able to avert; Satan coming to devour, Not knowing the day or hour. Hear the roars when he will stalk, Purring with a little sweet talk; But be firm in faith to resist, Knowing his temptations exist. Other believers have the same, Situation who plays his game; And now they were caught in a snare, And have been taken to his lair. Copyright © 2012 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
