A Journey: Part 2 Poem by Jacob Courtney

Part 2 Action and Consequence

I see so many saying God has blessed
me so much cause He gave me this He
gave me that. Are we truly foolish enough
to think that God blesses everything in
our lives. If you live in sin then why
would He bless you. The blessing is a
lie it is the devil continuing to fool
you every day. We are blinded by our own
arrogance that we refuse to see it. There
is the point we are arrogant we think more
of ourselves then who we truly are. Sin is
sin and there is but one cure for the disease.
The problem is no one wants the cure anymore
we are more content in our own arrogant ways
cause it is easier than living our lives to
a God we can't see a God who lets such horrid
things in the world. We have embraced the world
over the word we have embraced Satan over God.
We have forgotten that God is a holy being
that despises sin. We have turned him into
and old white bearded man who sits in the
clouds, we have turned God into a joke.
The problem is God is no laughing matter
infact we have lost all reverence for God
making a mockery of His word of His design
in our lives. We misquote scripture to justify
our ways but pluck any sentence out of any
book and it can be misquoted just as easy.
We talk about how this world is so messed up
how it is so bad you can't do the things you
use to do cause people have lost their minds.
This is true people have lost their minds.
We have become selfish cruel beings that only
thing of our wants, needs, and desires. We
have forsaken our fellow man but many say
how did we get this way. The answer is
simple we have forsaken God and His word.
When we as a whole gave reference to the word
of God we cared more for others than ourselves
did we not. We looked out for our neighbors
checking in on them being there for them
in times of disaster no matter what it was.
We were quicker to lend a helping hand to
those left homeless or broken down on the
side of the road. When we began to forsake
God and His ways for our lives choosing
sin over salvation the world began to
fall into more discord. Why would we not
expect the world to become more chaotic
more corrupted. We turned from God and
now we are suffering the consequences
for that. For every action there is
a consequence that must take place.
