Sometimes intent isn't enough!
Covenant: a formal, binding agreement
usually Biblical, in nature,
contract,
compact
Pact.
REBELLION
IT'S NOT, WHAT ANYONE MAY THINK
BUT THEN, HOW ARE THEY, TO KNOW?
A DOG, FROM HIS OWN VOMIT, DRINKS
AND THEN, PUTS ON, QUITE, A SHOW!
A poem forwarded to me this morning. seems aprapos. Art

 COVENANT!

When a Covenant you enter into;
with agreed goals and such, the co-authors ,
of this aim for God, count on your loyalty to,
the covenant you agreed, to honor:
and, they must know, to it,
you will be: true !
When broken it becomes:  betrayal,
and leaves the place of Grace.
The demons run right in,
to take the Angel's place. 
For honor, for truth, it must stand, 
the parties all must do;
nothing more,and nothing less, than they promised to.
So, I and others who, believed and supported you,
are left, wonderin, why, you couldn't, hang in there,
and support, yourself, too.
It's a sad state of affairs, and an embarrassment, as well. 
But then the only one who really, failed,
the one who'll surely, pay;
is the one who broke the Covenant,
and ran the other way.
I Pray  in time, you will see the truth,
the awesome plan He had,
and that you get back with Him;
and find your path to Everlasting.
And not bring tears and sorrow to:
The ones who want to help;
to bring you,
SHININ, thru.

Amen and Amen...a sad state of affairs. This is beautifully penned, ROCK-Salt!, and extremely well-conceived. The others who, believe in Him, too, will join with us in prayer, and Hope Eterne, that always burns, will keep us from despair!

The LORD's Best to you, ROCK
Love, RHO
