2Sam. 12-14

Sometimes we all, need to confess and recall.

Our failures in life, that have caused so much strife.

It is shown to be, a picture of me.

The shame it does bring, on my Lord and my King.

The consequences the enemy , will cause for my family.

Will tear us apart, and break my heart.

Death and disruption. Family destruction.

But even then I am forgiven. I can carry on living.

I can continue to fight. With the Lords might.

Victory is mine, I prove I am fine.

But behind the scenes, vengeance it seems.

Then death comes about, the reason no doubt.

It splits us apart, again breaks my heart.

Mth. 25:14-30

A story Jesus told , the servants who were bold.

To invest so to make , riches for the kingdoms sake.

But the one given little, his faith just so brittle.

Afraid to even invest that, just hid it under the mat.

What a disgrace, you are banished God says.

Ps. 137

By the rivets of Babylon, we realised what we had done.

We totally failed him , who all our hopes were in.

They wanted me to sing, but it was the very last thing.

I felt I could do. Lord l was away from you.

Prov. 17:22-23

A cheerful heart, always a good start. A secret bribe, keeps sin alive.
