In writing this poem, I was inspired by Jesus’ parable of the Rich Fool, who thought that with great material wealth came an assurance of long life. We live only as long as God allows; that’s why we should live each day for God as if it were our last on this Earth.<\/p>\n
\u201cProcrastination of Faith\u201d<\/p>\n
Why do you say to the Lord Most High, \u201cI will follow You later;
\nbut, for the time being, I will to my own needs cater\u201d?
\nFool! To you, tomorrow is not guaranteed; you may not have another day
\nOf life to do anything-whether to follow God or reject Him and go your own way.
\nThe end of the world could happen anytime-so I urge you, do not delay;
\nLive your life for the Lord, for He who first loved you, since before the very first day.
\nFor if you delay in answering Him, you may not answer at all.
\nThere is a great possibility that instead, you will turn away-and great will be your fall.
\nSo accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord, while you still have the time.
\nFor the eternal fate for all who do not is worse than for any human crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
