The Real Children

Mere generalizations Devoid of human logic, These bungling conclusions Are just simply pathetic. All men are not God's own- Though they are His creations, But those who chose to belong To Him, through Christ's Redemption. All suffering in this world These were not all God's undoing For the present evil does unfold Results of all men sinning. Rebellion took the greater part Denial of God's existence Had darkened now the human heart And sin caused its persistence. That is why there is the Way: Jesus, the Truth and the Life His Cross washed our sins away His Love saves us from strife. Receiving Him is the opening Of one's heart and mind to the Spirit Who guides all Truth in sancifying And the lamp of the Soul is lit. Humility is the key to acceptance The gift of salvation is not earned To grieve transgression is repentance Will release the peace of God yearned. 'The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them because they are spiritually discerned.' 1 Corinthians 2: 14 'Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave them the right to become children of God - children born not of natural descent or human decision... but born of God.'
