Time


 1 Peter 4:16    New King James Version

16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.

 

Time

 

In the temporal nothing seems forever

Does this makes sense or is it just an illusion?

For temporal is already part of the Eternal

That maybe reality in my point of view

 

Now if you take sickness it won’t last forever

That is temporary and won’t travel down in time

Hard to understand all things noticed in temporal

Except charity my friend when my call is due

 

A Christian should realize that no chastisement is forever

It is here possibly for us to be trained to bring fruit forth

 of righteousness and to be molded alike His image

the one of Jesus Christ and so not to put Him to shame
