Being lazy will make you poor,
but hard work will make you rich.
–Proverbs 10:4 (GNT)–

Flee! Run for your lives; become like a bush in the desert. Since you trust in your deeds and riches, you too will be taken captive, and Chemosh will go into exile, together with his priests and officials…Make her drunk, for she has defied the Lord. Let Moab wallow in her vomit; let her be an object of ridicule…We have heard of Moab’s pride—how great is her arrogance!—of her insolence, her pride, her conceit and the haughtiness of her heart…So my heart laments for Moab like the music of a pipe; it laments like a pipe for the people of Kir Hareseth. The wealth they acquired is gone…How shattered she is! How they wail! How Moab turns her back in shame! Moab has become an object of ridicule, an object of horror to all those around her…“Yet I will restore the fortunes of Moab in days to come,” declares the Lord.
–Jeremiah 48:6-7, 26, 29, 36, 39, 47 (NIV)–

The snake asked the woman, “Did God really tell you not to eat fruit from any tree in the garden?”…The snake replied, “That’s not true; you will not die. God said that because he knows that when you eat it, you will be like God and know what is good and what is bad.”
–Satan in Genesis 3:1, 4-5 (GNT)–

Who am I to question
Every day to understand
This precious beginning
Now fading, passing
This is the feelin’ of a sadness
Where will solace find me?
Where will peace begin?
Where will peace begin?
I have the call to be true
Find a way for you
The peace be inside
Follow safely home
In my God, in His smile
Nothing is impossible
Every day brings an awesome hope
Grace will lead the way
And joy will follow
My heart leaps at the sound of Your voice
Calling my name
And You are so perfect
In every way
A testimony of creation
Beautiful is Your Name
I can’t wait to see Him when I wake
Fresh and new
Simple and true
Formed by mercy
Formed by grace
Earth and sky
In Your eyes
Blessed
Pure
You’re more than I deserve
You’re my blessing
You’re my wisdom
You’re my freedom
You’re my mission
I live for His glory

Disfigured, bloodless exit
Soul embraced, soul in pain
With a burning existence, eternally separated
Savior lost, Heaven lost
Tortured within, what could have been
Separation, this afterlife in death
In one breath
Could it be this darkness
Is a product of my design
My choice of self over God
I took what’s mine
I denied, denied

Father of Lies
Burn with your legion
Suffer inside eternal Abyss
God has terminated my soul
The committed:
“I want to dwell within Your Embrace.”

I had a dream of this reality
My decision to live by my means
I took what’s mine, never regret, until now
Separation from the love I took for granted
Separation from the truth revealed to me

There are people in other religions who…
belong to Christ without knowing it.
For example, a Buddhist.

If the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, so that the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any one of them, that person is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at the watchman’s hand.
–Ezekiel 33:6 (ESV)–
