The Warning
The pavement glistens,
from a torrent awaited.
We run back into buildings that shelter
and continue our day a little less dry.
from a torrent awaited.
We run back into buildings that shelter
and continue our day a little less dry.
When it pours,
do you consider the Arc,
or is that just a fairy tale in your heart.
do you consider the Arc,
or is that just a fairy tale in your heart.
It is easier to listen
if we think the words are for children.
We can even smile
when a child asks where are the unicorns.
Do you close your eyes,
if someone says,
"This is God's warning to the people of that day."
If so,
how will He warn us today,
with a virus that causes leaders to panic,
with dark skies and horrible storms,
with wars which will have no victor.
If so,
how will He warn us today,
with churches that pay homage to self and not others,
denominations which support the rule of their laws and not His,
leaders who say holiness is the work of evil
and we should openly accept sin.
It rains today,
but He promised to never wipe us clean
with torrents of water.
This time He has wiped us clean with blood
and still,
we do not heed the warning.
