Reality
Moment after moment slip into eternity
With souls still lost and dying in their false reality
Not seeing all around them how the battle rages on
Between our God and Satan on this planet we live on
So many think today is just another day of life
With random acts of kindness mixed in with the rounds of strife
Assuming that tomorrow will have something new in store
Not knowing that the present is alive with so much more
Activity that's shaping what their future soon will be
When Christ returns in glory to restore humanity
To His eternal image for which we have grace today
And mercy that was purchased by the Price He chose to pay
For angels stand in waiting both of light and darkness too
Observing by our actions what they have a right to do
To influence the outcome of our thoughts and words and deeds
To soften or to harden us to other's worldly needs
That likewise have an impact on what they might choose to do
And how they face the future and events that they come to
To grasp the hand that sacrificed His all to take our place
Or follow into darkness those who turn from Jesus' face
To chase after illusions that like useless ropes of sand
Will offer not protection when in Judgment they will stand
To answer for their choices to serve God or selfish greed
Because when called to answer Truth was not what they did heed
But rather chose to follow in the path of self regret
The easy path to follow as each day they did neglect
The time that leads from sorrow to eternal joy with Him
That prayer time with the Bible that God shares with all of them
Who choose to be observant of the times in which we live
Who choose the Truth that's offered that this time alone can give
When our eyes can be opened to the battles for each soul
And leading hearts to Jesus is our sole eternal goal
Just like it was for Jesus and still is until this day
While He still serves in heaven as our Priest and Lord and Way
To make that preparation for the future that is near
When all will be divided by the choices they made here
John 14:1-21; Ephesians 6:10-18; Joshua 24:14-15
