F07 The Justice Of God Poem by Simple Simon

F07 The Justice Of God

Rating: 5.0


Good seeds, when we sow,
Unwanted weeds too grow.
We pull out the weeds,
And allow the good seeds.

To this kind of rule one,
God is no exception.
When He sows seeds of men,
He destroys weeds of men.

This has been evident,
From every past event
Of the Old Testament,
Ever held as paramount.

From the days of Adam,
God gave man wisdom;
But man used it seldom,
And misused his freedom.

How can one blame the Lord,
When one is unfaithful to God?
But still God has been kind,
And liberal to the mankind.

If man chose good,
His life brightly stood.
If his ways were bad,
His end became sad.

This golden lesson,
We come to learn,
From the stories told,
So far, new or old.

Though weakness for women,
Was present in King Solomon,
Yet, his love for the Lord
In many ways, he proved.

His proverbs are universal,
And his songs, sung by people.
They reveal his inner spirit
And his personal merit.

After Solomon, events go routine,
The fights going on in-between
Israelite Kings and their enemies:
The success and defeat of armies.

A wonderful summary of the way God has dealt with mankind from the beginning of time. His justice is severe, but His mercy is infinite. Verses of wisdom indeed, Simon. Warm regards, Sandra
