“The fear of the Lord is
the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and
instructions.” (Proverbs 1:7)
~^~
So many live in ignorance
Laugh at jest of deliverance
Think salvation is a joke
Misunderstand the holy yoke
Treat God like He is a fool
Like to think they're so cool
Claim brilliance reading books
Of God's bible won't take a look
Quote from all the worlds greats
Treat God's quotes with hate
They join together to deride
Anyone who takes God's side
Happy are they to sneer and chuckle
Claiming to God they'll never buckle
Until mortality shows its face
Then they cry out for His grace
They totally misunderstand what is sin
Thinking it's denial of all the good things
Afraid they have to give up their control
This thinking is what loses them their soul
God has one requirement to gain His favor
The one that asks us to make an endeavor
It is simply that we are to believe in Him
When we do our relationship will begin
Would they judge Plato, Freud,Voltaire
Having not read their books to compare
Some feel so wise their knowledge true
But of wisdom they haven't got a clue
~^~
“Let no one deceive himself If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age let him become a fool, that he may become wise For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God for it is written,’He catches the wise in their own craftiness'."
I Corinthians 3:18-19

"Wisdom as the crow flies...." this pretty much sums life up in a nutshell. You always give so much to your poetry and each time is more remarable than the previous time.
Blessings and love,

Freud was a weirdo messing us up right to this day, as with Marx, and Voltarie who was anti faith, screamed at his death when he saw fire approaching, yet Jung was pretty spot on for his day... I read anything with words... Yet after so many years I have found that all life's answers are in the Chirstian faith... Spec the Mystics....
Top hoe of a penn again...
This is an expression of a faithful heart... "What is Wisdom" glows as a poetic task accomplished. I like it.

Getting excited: moving into our new church building in a few weeks! Pray all goes well! :)
Yes, What is Wisdom? Perhaps we should ask the question to a squirrel.

But of wisdom they haven't got a clue
I sadly believe this is our modern day Mantra, and we will one day soon pay very dearly for it.
God Bless You! Jasmin Horst
