God, Yesterday And Today!

A thousand years is but a day to God! The God we know is kind did wield a rod, Quite stiff on people disobeying Him, In earlier times as mentioned in Bible; He talked to mankind directly those days, And warned of impending dangers on earth; He sent His Angels punishing wicked, And helped His righteous souls in distress times; He showed His mighty anger on sinners, He forgave those who accepted their faults, Confessing sins, repenting, once for all; Rewarding upright ones who kept His code; Performing miracles quite unheard of, God shepherded His flock which loved Him too; Destroying tribes and nations who were rogue, He cleansed the sinful world and kept it straight; Despite the Bible telling how God acts, Men do not keep the commandments, He gave. The modern world is rife with mortal sins; The Creator is often forgotten; With help of science, man thinks he can live well; But God can well afford to watch and wait; His heart is sad that man forgets His love! Only a few will take part in His Feast; The Maker weeps as men haven’t learnt lessons! Nevertheless, God is the fairest Judge; How long His patience lasts, no one will know!
