Christ only


Proverbs 4:18 

18 But the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light,
growing brighter and brighter until full day.

 

Only Christ

 

Another day stretches out ... it is early morning.

What will take place today? Has it been ordained?

The time is carved out ... like a spot in the Eternal,

a dot full of activity with losses and with gains.

 

Is it any wonder that the daylight stays in hiding?

The night rules in places deemed to be attractive.

Did some for the sake ... of destination design it?

To show the troubles of the day in need to be effective.

 

If life is an illusion ... so pain must be.

Grief and sorrow hand in hand walking in a dream

Happiness and feeling good are bathing in the sun.

Balances in accounts entrenched in scum and schemes.

 

Life is a reality ... written in a fog.

Hanging around until the Son shines through.

Purity in hand ... is now available

paid for with a price ... that only Christ could do.
