Lust...

Postby allpayedatcross » Thu Aug 24, 2006 11:44 pm

a drug of choice lust, A

to some "a tastey treat", B

it corrupts the minds of the just, A

and destroys all that it meets. B


lust destroys the heart, C

it leavs the soul in shambles, D

we give up true wealth and happiness for some crummy peices of art. C

slowly many lights are lits, multiple candles, D

everyone placed around the caskit with utter carelessness, E

amongst the pews not a man can be seen, F

as we walk about the gloomful room we come to this place cloud in weariness, E

and we find to our horror that the ones in the burial are you and me. F


We have come to find, to our regret, that we are the ones in the grave lying, G

you me and all of these that chose to endorse this wretched heart rot, H

if only we had been aware of our own soul's dying,G

then maybe, just maybe, at this life we would have had a shot. H
"But I tell you that anyone that looks at a woman lustfully has already commited adultury with her in his heart"
(Matt. 5:28)

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
(Romans 5:8)

"Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.""
(John 14:6)

A child who is allowed to be disrespectful to his parents will not have true respect for anyone.
~Billy Graham

God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, "I love you."
~Billy Graham

Lust is, indeed, a terr'ble scourge
And it, from ourselves, we must purge,
Yet 'tis but one of many things
That to our soul true peril brings.

For while we battle this dread bane
Forget we Pride, Mammon doth stay,
Many and varied be the stain
That without God our soul will slay.

Oh, grant us Lord that we might see
Our ev'ry sin, and seek for Thee.
"...cease not a day from this work; be killing sin or it will be killing you." - John Owen The Mortification of Sin
