These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Weather Strong

Light so hot upon the ground.
Floods are raging through the land.
To the future we are bound.
Believing Hope in One Great Hand.

Hurricanes and earthquakes, too,
they always threaten ev'ry year.
It seems this year as more comes through,
the Message of the Lord is clear.

"I will not always strive with Man.
My Will is done, and that most quick.
Repent, believe Salvation's Plan,
before the Judgment's really thick."
(Genesis 6:3, KJV)
(I Thessalonians 4:14-18, KJV)
(John 3:16-18; John 6:37,44, KJV)
(Ephesians 2:8-10; Philippians 2:13, KJV)

We sit within the manmade air,
and still we melt so humidly.
The hoped relief just makes us stare,
awaiting days we cannot see.

The mountains flood. The lowland's dry,
but when The Deluge the Lord full made,
those outside of the ark could cry,
until their bodies were displayed.

Please, know the Lord, while there's yet time.
When the Wrath of Heaven comes in force,
these days right now are a mere playtime,
until God's Judgment runs Its course.

Jesus born The Perfect Son
died upon a cruel tree,
buried after Payment won,
rose again upon Day Three.

Repent! Believe this Gospel True,
while the Day of Grace is given to all.
The Hope we need is in Him, Who
will return as Master. Before him fall.
