A Christian Desirous Of
And
Avidly Seeking After The Easy Life
On Colorful, Brightly Lit
And
Always Entertaining Broadway
Is
A Sweet Treat
And
A Cheap Play-Thing For That Damned Satan!
As Committed Christians
We Have Been Told
And
Have Had This Truth Repeated For Us To Gain Wisdom
- Foresight To Operate
And
Insight To Maneuver -
So That We Do Not Have To Suck On
Hindsight's Tailpipe Of Regret
As We Vainly, Bitterly Utter:
"Woe Is Me!
I Could Have!
I Would Have!
I Should Have
But
I, Disobedient, Did Not!"
Beloved,
We Know For A Fact That Anything In This Life That
Is
Truly Worth Possessing
Comes At A Great Cost
Be It Blood, Sweat, Tears, Friends
Family ... Or Funds!
Brethren,
The Life Of Christ Shows Us
What It Cost Almighty God
Father, Son And Holy Ghost
- In The Personal Sacrifice Of The Only One Innocent -
To Gift To Us New Life ... Eternal Life
A Future
And
An Expected End Of Peace
And
Joys Forever!
Beloved,
Accepting And Holding The Blessed Gift
Is
Going To Cost Us Everything That Is Earthy!
Please Live With A Light Touch
And
An Even Lighter Hold On Earth's Goods!
Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...
Carnal Pleasure And Ease
Will Never Satisfy Our Hungry Souls:
Look Up To Jesus Christ Always
And
In All Ways
And
Be Eternally Blessed!
Obedience
To The Immutable Truth
Pays
Eternal Dividends!
Please Help Me, Dear Father, To Hold Fast To And Lovingly Embrace The Saving Truth For As Long As Life Shall Last: Bless Me To Be Enduringly Faithful So That I Shall Meet My Lord Jesus Christ In Perfect Peace!
