You do not need someone to write, About the all dates and the times; When Christ comes like a thief at night, If He has committed no crimes. You already know very well, The day will come for when the Lord; Each of us invited to dwell, If we have been in one accord. Everything is safe and sound, Destruction will suddenly hit; Corruption and deception found, Like a child who will not quit. Being sudden as labor pains, That comes to a pregnant woman; While causing such stress and strains, Till the delivery is done. They are unable to escape, Since they do not live in the dark; For the Lord molded to reshape, On the direction they embark. That day will not be a surprise, As someone who is a thief would; For the righteous sees the disguise, Knowing what possibly could. You belong to the day and light, So we must never fall asleep; As anyone sleeps in the night, Like a bunch of misguided sheep. We must stay awake and sober, As well as put on faith and love; Those who are drunk only slumber, Unprepared what will be thereof. Because we belong to the day, We must never become wasted; Continue to trust and obey, Cherish in what God invested. God wants you not to feel the wrath, Rather to obtain salvation; Stay on the straight and narrow path, Giving faith a firm foundation. Copyright © 2016 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
