Great Falling Away

The flames may have died
Fierce passions, ran dry
Many churches, dwindling
Are now asking why?

But God waits for our choices
His love, forces not
Forewarns us, of outcomes
Yet we choose our lot.

So easily deceived
Follow flesh, not God’s Spirit
Refusing to repent
Their choice, God fulfils it!

Yes, our carton gets filled
For we all choose contents
Either God’s will and truths
Or man’s changing concepts.

So, choose rather to suffer
Affliction, with God’s people
Than passing pleasures of sin
Be with Christ, and not evil.

Are you faithful to God
Or falling away
Follow His will
Or falter and stray?

Know our time will soon come
Before Him all must stand
Will your works all be burned
Or blessed…at His right hand.

Seems feelings, change often
Are not easily controlled
So we seek, passing pleasures
Hope our feelings, are consoled.

Be daily inspired
By God’s Holy Word
Pray the Spirit of God
Cause your heart, to be stirred.

Jesus calls us to go
Bold, as His disciples
But we’ve always excuses
Allow ‘self’, easily stifle.
