The Golden Rule

Life of Love



We say we love our family and we love our friends, but could we still love them even though we see their sins,

We all have thought, said and done evil things but Christ still has mercy when he died for our sins,

Wisdom cries out from deep down inside, she has been with us all since the beginning of time,

Who are we to judge when only God knows the real story, no matter what happens he still gets all the glory,

He was there when we were neglected and left out in the cold, he was there when were depressed when real love was never shown,

Love without an agenda can never be for sale, love that is selfish will definitely fail,

He heard our cry when things happened that wasn’t even our fault, he also knew when we did things thinking that we’d never get caught,

Yet our sins were already forgiven when Jesus died on the cross, every mistake we make he already paid the cost,

Life would be so simple if we abide in the golden rule, treating others how you want to be treated is the right thing to do,

Religion has taught us to appear to be good and judge those who don’t fit our criteria, but we would be doomed if God treated us like some diseased bacteria,

Religion is for the proud and the arrogant with hidden secrets, but whatever we sow in return we will surely reap it,

The bible says that my people perish for lack of knowledge, if we don’t know why we have habits then we don’t know how to stop it,

God says even the thoughts he thinks of us are loving and good, without knowing he truly loves us we are misunderstood,

He doesn’t force us or expect for us to be perfect, it is the heaven inside of us that makes us worth it,

It’s like a lost child that has grace, and then finally finds the truth, that God’s love never fails and never pressures you,

Feeling the presence of his glory all darkness has to flee; in order for Christ to shine we must exalt thee,

We can still be among others and not what we use to be, allowing the Holy Spirit to lead us in what we do and speak,

Having a personal relationship with God we’ll never be lead astray and even with our imperfections he’s faithful anyway,

When we are aware that he’s watching and he is a God of love, it makes it easier for us to live and do as he does,

Talk to him in prayer as if we’re talking to a friend, he knows the good and the bad our beginning and our end.
