Foolish Slumber


The hours have been counted in the days are numbered. When will this foolish man awaken from his slumber. No time too soon if he doesn't repent for the price of sin is a fiery pit. Everyone sees the love he wants to give but if it's not for himself he'll never truly relive. Mercy has been shown by many when they realize he doesn't have a penny. Not a single person believes what he said because time and time again he winds up dead. He claims the love and protection of his God but his life is somehow weakened by a broken rod. Never does he stop fighting and if he could control himself he'd be pretty mighty. People never really understand but the closer he gets to repentance the devil seeks to destroy and conquer him. This is one man who can heal himself with the power of Christ like one else. The universal laws of love he shows puts this man right up there with the best you'll ever know. He's ready now to go and see his true father, but so many would be torn and severely bothered. His place is the show no matter who you are everyone deserves Grace love and forgiveness especially those Behind invisible Bars. Pray for this man when you can because he's touching and healing broken hearts and inspiring the ones close to him.
