Fiction Versus Reality
The world's absorbed in fiction while reality that's here
Is beckoning attention to the Judgement Day that's near
When all will be decided either for the good or bad
Based on eternal knowledge that each one of us has had
That knowledge from the Father that's revealed through Christ the Son
Derived before the world began before the first sin done
How God in Christ would come to earth to be as One with men
And by His death God's Sacrifice would cleanse each one of sin
Who lived up to the knowledge that they had of God's great love
The knowledge of His will for them sent down from up above
In words of inspiration in the scriptures that we hold
Where all we've ever needed for salvation has been told
But like a living fountain in a desert all alone
Cannot preserve one's living if not taken as their own
So scriptures can't preserve us in the time that's soon to come
If we're not filled and nourished by the Source that it comes from
And even though we mention little verses here and there
To others who might listen as we meet with them for prayer
Unless we're deeply grounded in what God would have us know
Then heaven's destination won't be where we'll likely go
Because as Jesus told us heart and soul belong to Him
As He through meditation in His Word can dwell in them
And if we are not living up to what He does provide
Our hearts in time of trouble will not have a place to hide
Nor will we know His Spirit when the latter rain appears
Or listen to His guidance as His words we will not hear
Because we held to fiction when reality was ours
To have and hold from heaven in the final closing hours
So friend don't waste the moments God has given you by grace
But early every morning take that time to seek His face
And let His Spirit lead you as you read His words with Him
To comprehend their meaning and receive the power in them
That when that time approaches you'll not only be prepared
But others who have watched you will know how much Jesus cares
And like you will be searching seeking wisdom from above
And likewise be enraptured by the Father's words of love
James 4:7-17; 1 Corinthians 2:7-16
