Meditation 4


Meditation 4

Mark 10:9 

9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

 

Words of riches carved in life

to the depths of understanding.

Who are we to just provide

our wants through demanding?

 

Decisions of life misunderstood

thus death rules until now.

The hearts of men up to no good

ignoring the truth … a fatal flaw.

 

Feeling good being in charge

decisions made with little sense.

A golden calf … so very large,

blinds their view and makes them dense.

 

Destined to live a living death

a contradiction and so senseless.

A dying life ready for bed

is what makes so defenseless.
