Sonnet: For Heaven’s Sake, Be Righteous

Like a roaring lion, prowls the devil, Our adversary, to undo our good; For, enough is enough; do no evil; Receive the crown of life through good priesthood. Shepherd the flock like how Jesus Christ did; The Good Shepherd died for no fault of His; Be like the city on the hill unhid; Walk in the shadow of the cross to bliss. Oh, how much longer must we live in sin? Such precious time has gone awaste in life; God helps the righteous against devils win; The life in heaven is one without strife. Oh, live a selfless life for Jesus’ sake; Remember that Heaven, hell isn’t a fake! Copyright by Dr John Celes 1-6-2007
