Life & Death Haikus: Which Way? (Original Poem)

in poetry •  7 years ago 


Worship or Warships
Give praise, or be one who preys
You cannot serve both...


As always, you will be able to see the balance and distinction between good and evil. A fine line between the Heavenly Father our invisible God, and the father of lies, the god (little g) of this world, the devil. Just as many who worship God and give him praise, there are even moreso who worship the devil, and those who label themselves as Luciferians. Now the problem lies in their position of power, influence, and manipulative elitist control which affect our daily lives, because they so badly wish for the continuance of the falling away of faith. This world has taught us to only trust the basic five senses we have been given, to live in the present tense and now, and rely on tangible, physical pleasures and desires. Sight, sound, taste, touch and smell are only small indicators of us truly living. It is quite a sad thing that many people are not able to access the spiritual connection they can have with God Almighty through Jesus Christ. Sometimes I think, the only way someone will believe that God is real is if they go through a phase of hell on earth before experiencing anything remotely heavenly, but on the contrary, one can experience the heavenly on a very deep level as well without the need for deep despair and suffering. God is holy and we have been called to be holy, and He indeed deserves glory unto His name, which is what I try to incorporate in my poetry and music. He shall not be forgotten and so often are we distracted by the worldly things which distance us from our Creator. We are mere dust but have been called to be much more with the spirit of God breathed into our being...



“Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.”
(King James Version Bible - Book Psalms: Chapter : 29 Verse: 2)


Regarding Jesus Christ, Our Lord & Saviour)


"15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God."

(King James Version Bible - Book John: Chapter 3: Verse: 15-21)

Let peace reign:)

If God reigns on earth, then peace shall be found indeed @prydefoltz :) but for now we must endure the madness we see everyday

Do our best to find the peace within ... I suppose:)

Yes that is definitely something worth striving for in life

Thanks I was almost scared for a moment of what I would find when I clicked to read your post but I am very glad of what I found. I thank you for your work very good haiku. Those who do not put God first in their life above all things are at war with God. It is an active rebellion and God being a just judge must punish all injustice. If you do not know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior I just ask that you would ask God for guidance, read the book of John, and I pray that you will accept God into your life.

You are most welcome, there is no need to be scared of anything. What things are are for a reason. Glad you found the gospel in my post. All glory to God, wise words indeed. I hope we can continue to shed light on the darkness and bring brothers and sisters into salvation through Jesus Christ

Amen to that. Glad toknow that I have brothers on steemit.

Yes indeed, far and few of us brothers and sisters as it is in the grand scheme of things but another fellow brother in Christ is @papa-pepper as well. We both did a collaboration called 50 Days To Understanding the End Times, a biblical breakdown of certain aspects of Revelation and other topics. You should check it out when you get the chance. There is also a Christian group chat on Discord as well if you're interested in fellowshipping and connecting with others of the Body of Christ. God bless you

I definitely will check it out. Sounds like a good study. Cool glad to hear that he also is a brother. I haven't been on Discord yet but I do plan to at some point that'll give me a good reason to.

Okay great sounds good. God bless you
