Human Resources, God Resources! Poem by Denis Martindale

Mankind's been blessed with wondrous minds,
His legacy's ensured
And so much more the day he finds
The blessings of the Lord!
For secret truths are then revealed,
Beyond the wit of Man,
Unfolding scrolls that God has sealed
According to His plan...

Imagine all of history,
Compressed into one week,
For here explains God's mystery,
The world ruled by the meek...
The prophecies explain the facts,
The future must belong
Not to the leader who reacts,
Not to the ones thought strong...

Resources that are now esteemed
Are temporary at best,
God's planned much more, beyond hopes dreamed,
It's like His treasure chest...
Today, Man fumbles here and there,
His bombs don't solve a thing,
That's why believers kneel in prayer,
To Jesus Christ, the King...

And in His Name, they prophesy,
Of blessings in good time,
Of peace on Earth that's meant to be,
A respite quite sublime...
When God preserves a world called lost,
When Man admits defeat,
When perfect love has paid the cost,
When life proves truly sweet...

Today, we linger, waiting still,
Resources almost spent,
But prayer's the resource doubts can't kill,
You see, it's Heaven-sent...
By faith, Mankind has come this far,
By faith, each nation learns,
By faith, we prove what good we are,
Till Jesus Christ returns...
