Cause and effect


Proverbs 10:7             New English Translation

7 The memory of the righteous is a blessing,

but the reputation of the wicked will rot.

 

Flash thoughts and loss of memory are really contrary

To natural cause and effect as God’s law defines

Powers of darkness, we well know, work from the inside out

They produce the havoc that’s setting the natural on fire
