Let come what may the many ups and downs.....
They prove a man and his worth true or false...
For when no test comes, a man's worth is naught..
And when the bad comes he will surely fail..
The writings on the wall the Bible says.
O will you be found wanting? God forbid..
And will you hinge on divided be given..
To two or more who vie to overtake...
Be sure your house in order now is made...
Tomorrow is too late, the Bible says..
And yesterday is past, it stays buried
.
The present is what matters tis a gift..
A gift from God in Heaven and on High..
From His Almighty and Eternal Hand.

Sometimes we pass, so.stones we sadly fail...
For we are human of Adamic race...
Mistakes we make, and sin we are prone to
...
Forgiveness we must ask and be sincere...
Perfection in this world? The fight give up?
O aye it seems that this indeed The case....
For truly it can be no other way....
Get up get up...the battle rages on...
It only seems like it cannot be done..
But truly yes it can, o have us Faith..
Just do not become overconfident....
In Master Jesus put us first your trust...
To Him in prayer go day and night sincere...
And then it will not seem so bittersweet...
