to GOD be the GLORY
~ The Color Of Things Coming ~
By Deborah Ann
I watch Fall’s colored leaves,
turn from red to golden brown
drifting on the breeze of Autumn
floating idly to the ground.
They lay in all their splendor,
till rake piles them knee-high
for eye to see and foot to crush
before they wither away and die.
Fall reminds me of the colors,
of the things forthcoming . . .
when Jesus with a trump
declares He is returning.
His eyes will see those waiting,
eagerly for His return
while He crushes under foot
those who gave Him no concern.
As I watch Fall’s colored leaves,
turn from red to golden brown
I pray everyday I can turn . . .
just one sinner’s heart around!
~~~~~~~~~~
Let both grow together until
the harvest: and in the time
of harvest I will say to the reapers,
Gather ye together first the tares,
and bind them in bundles to burn
them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
So Christ was once offered to bear
the sins of many; and unto them
that look for him shall he appear
the second time without sin
unto salvation.
