Is Eternal Life Real? Poem by Dr. Lalita Smith

</>There is an ark of safety being built for you today.
It can't be seen by human eyes
But I am constructing it nonetheless.

You ask - 'Is there a heaven? '
You ask - 'Does hell really exist? '
You ask - 'Is eternal life real? '
Yet you pray amiss.

I now ask you - 'Is there a sun? '
I now ask you - 'Is there a moon? '
I now ask you - 'Is there a world beneath me who
recognizes that I AM coming back soon?

You ask - 'What is fact vs. fiction? '
You ask - 'What is true vs. tradition? '
You ask if eternal life is real -
oblivious to discern the fact that you're still about to miss it.

There is an ark of safety being built for you today.
It can't be understood by your human reasoning
and that is how eterning things must stay.

'Without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he that cometh to
God must first believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those
who diligently seek Him.'
