BEHOLD



PSALM 119 (26)

It is time for You to act, O Lord
For they have regarded Your law as void.



Like a discarded plastic bag trapped high on the wire
buffeted by the raging storm,
I swing between elation and sorrow
the end game WRITTEN long ago.

Sickening depravity of a rotting culture,
writhing sea of dammed souls,
 grotesque parade of man's appalling inhumanity.
And still they dance and say "God doesn't see"

This rapid slide into chaos gains momentum,
drug induced mania, a weaponless war, but no less lethal,
kiss of a silent enemy harvested in blood red fields.

Shameless this face of human greed,
featureless the stare of apathy.
Your commandments ignored by fraudulent leaders
resplendent in their palaces,
well hidden from mayhem called anarchy.

The remnant wait, hearts united 
for they know divine love,
and hunger for their real home
the journey all but over.

For a mind far superior to the greatest mankind has produced is moving to take their weapons and toys and there will be peace and justice in His Kingdom.

BEHOLD HE COMES
