Take one bite and ...


2 Timothy 3:16-17 

16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

 

Take one bite ... call it a meal in dissatisfaction

Take one sip ... to quench all thirst as a distraction

Write one word ... call it a book in a distorted illusion

Give one kiss and call it love toward your own deduction

 

If today the Lord has made ... when did He design it?

If all things are known to Him ... when did He define it?

If He knows our every need ... how did he prime it?

If He knows our every thought ... how did He confine it?

 

If all things are preplanned ... would that be fatalistic?

If nothing happens by accident was it then so scripted?

Are we to understand all or should we go just ballistic?

If all things are a precedent than nothing is left mystic
