6-6-15 No Peace

the-scream-1893 Edvard Munch

There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.

Isaiah 48:22 KJV

~~~~~~~~~~~

Today the wicked roam the earth with glee

Without a sense of consequence or care.

They take what isn’t theirs and say it’s free;

Depravity and death stink up the air.

Don’t think that they are getting by with this,

Although it seems that now it is the case.

A reckoning will come that they can’t miss;

The wicked won’t have peace – no, not a trace.

The evil that men do will haunt their souls

If they don’t turn to Jesus and confess.

When death arrives they’ll see then He controls

And it will be too late: there’s no redress.

Eternity’s forever without peace.

Serenity in Christ will never cease.

~~~~~~~~~~~

    Thank YOU, FATHER, for being a just JUDGE. We can trust YOU with our friends and relatives who have not accepted YOU yet in their ignorance. Let them all accept YOU and may all the evil forces in people come out and let YOUR peace come in to them. AMEN
