I Visited The Buffet Table
At The Restaurant Called "Life Is A Beach"
Where The Sands Of Time Were Everywhere
And
The Shells Of Fallen Men
Were Being Sun Bleached!
The Ebb And Flow Of Life And Time
Was Evidenced Upon Form And Face
Of All Who Ate At Life Is A Beach
Because
There Was No Other Food Establishment That
Could Beat The Choices Or Atmosphere
In That Very Popular Place!
When A Business Has No Competition
It Does Exactly What It Wants:
It Can Sell Pig Swill
And
Make You Purchase It
Because
They Convince You That
It Is What You Need
It Is A Must-Have Want
And Because
Some Soul With A Little Claim To Fame
Has Endorsed The Swill For A Sweet ... Check
And
Everybody Who Wants To Be Considered
To Be A Part Of The Inside Crew
Eats And Tells A Friend, A Sister, A Brother
And Soon
People Who Should Know Better
Are Eating Sweet Bread That Is Burnt And Bitter!
The Prices Are Changed Every Day
And
Sometimes Even After You've Checked The Price
And
Eaten
And
Before You've Paid For Your Order!
Talk About Bold-Faced Cheats!
But ...
Having Sold The Citizens On
"Seldom Comes A Better!"
And
Having Achieved A Cornered Market
By Bold And Brazen Deceit
Life Is A Beach Restaurant's Proprietor
Shameless Duffy
Front-Man For Baseman B'Old
That Decepti-Conman Of Ages Old
Arrived At His Establishment
To Find That Another Establishment Had Opened
And
Was Actively Doing Good Business
Right. Next. Door!
Who!?!
How!?!
When!?!
Why!?!
He Called His Boss
To Find That His Boss
His Intrepid, Fearless, Feisty, Facing, Boss
Is
Already In Fear
For The New Enterprise Had Long Been Expected
Even Though The B'Old One Had Long Tried
The Event To Proscribe!
The Handwriting That Has Long Been On The Wall
Is Being Explained Inside
And On
The New Establishment's Clean And White Walls!
The Menu Is Written In Big, Bold, Letters!
The Ingredients' List Is Plain, Easy To Read!
The Servers Are Stars, Strong, Willing To Serve
Practitioners Of The Defensive Arts
And
Influencers Of No Mean Impact
And
Most Dreadful Of All To Baseman B'Old Of The Heart Cold
Is That
The Price Of Everything On The Menu
Is, To The Eater, Cost-Free
With Not Even A Transaction Fee!
The New Establishment Is Called
Bread Of Heaven!
The Invitation To Eat Says:
Come As You Are!
Eat Free
And
Leave Refreshed, Reformed, Renewed
In Original, One-Of-A-Kind Free Robes
From The Line Clean And White
From The Collection A La King
From The House Of Love And Righteousness!
Eat All You Want!
Come For The Food
And
Stay For The Companionship!
The Proprietor
Is
The Concierge
The Cook
The Chef
The Caterer
The Cleaner
And
He Has The Most Shocking Back-Story!
He Is The Soul-Healer
And
The Against-Damnation Sealer!
I Was Wowed!
I Visited
And
At The Bread Of Life's Buffet Station
I Saw Food In Abundance
But
According To Tradition
And
My Gluttonous Expectation
Limited Choice!
I Wanted To Raise An Indignant Voice
But
I Was Intrigued:
EAT IT ALL BUFFET!
You Eat: He Paid!

Suddenly ...
I Noticed The Quiet!
I Felt The Peace ... The Calm
And Then
Strange To Changing Ears
I Heard The Sound:
Peace Be Upon You!
Glory, Glory!
Hallelujah, Jesus!
My Eyes Flared And My Ears
And
Forehead Raised In Shock!
Jesus!?!
Jesus Was Here!?!
Here At Last!?!
I, Uncaring Of My Observers
Raised My Hands And Shouted:
Glory To God Most High!
Lord, I Love You!
Please Draw Near!
I Have Long Had A Need
And For You, My Heart Does Bleed!
Please, Lord, Draw Near
For From You I Must Feed!
Please Take My Sinner's Life
And Take Me Under Your Control!
I Will Follow You, Lord: Please Lead!
Bossman B'Old Had Just Lost Himself Another Client!
KJV Romans 8
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit
Clean
Before The Lord
And
Without Shame Or Remorse Before The Law
Is
The
Life Of Those
Who Chose Christ's Free Salvation And Cleansing
Over Sin
And The Sinfulness Of Self!
Sin ... The Flesh Life
Carries Us Where We
Don't Want To Go
But
Salvation ... The Life Of Christ
Directed By The
Holy Spirit Of Truth
Takes Us To The Land Of Hope ... To Glory
Where All
Is Rest, Peace, And Everlasting Joy!
Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...
Sin Is For A Time
But
Salvation Is
For Eternity
So Choose Salvation
And
Almighty God's Amazing Grace Today!
Glory
Awaits The Enduring Faithful!
