Love One Another...Jn.13: 34 Poem by Michael P. Johnson

God commands to love each other
Do right, though things go wrong
While in church we hate a brother
Singing a righteous song

We laugh, we smile we sit and talk
Behave as though a friend
As Satan’s own, we’ll freely walk
Until our knees, we’ll bend

When the ceiling becomes like steel
When our prayer fails to rise
Till when our nakedness we feel
And truth opens our eyes

With facts, man can’t afford to play
Nor lies, Liars will hide
To live, we need to walk Life’s Way
With Heaven’s Truth inside

Do you think in life you’re winning?
Exploiting diverse crimes
For a moment’s joy while sinning
As I have many times

You know how oft, in life you’ve failed
How much you’ve fallen short
The times you’ve wept, cried and wailed
At Jesus’ sad report

How empty one feels deep within
Distraught, walking alone
Beneath the consequence of sin
With heart and soul as stone

God’s neither deaf, nor is He blind
This fact’s to understand
Forgiveness only comes to mind
When living life God’s planned.....
