 WHEN EVIL COMES by David CLURE

 

Who would ever guess --
Evil from from a clear blue sky
would come?
An ordinary day, or so
it seemed
.
When evil threatened everything
we'd ever dreamed or done.
When evil comes.

When evil comes
we measure what seems certain
but oftentimes,
proves insecure.

When evil comes let creatures
flee to God, for refuge.
When, evil comes trust NOT 
the arm of flesh, which proves useless
when put to the test.

When evil comes
return to Jesus Christ who's proven
STRONG!  Return to righteousness
when evil comes.

Why linger we so long?
Why encourage so, the wrong?
When Evil comes?
We ought to seek Our Best Friend
to impress.
When evil comes.

INDEED...WHEN GOD ALLOWS EVIL TO COME IT IS ALWAYS FOR A GOOD PURPOSE. OF COURSE, MANY, AT TIMES DO NOT FULLY UNDERSTAND 'HIS' PURPOSE BUT WE ALL CERTAINLY SHOULD TURN TO HIM, OUR VERY BEST FRIEND. THANKS FOR SHARING, DAVID. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

1st Thessalonians 5:22. "Reject every kind of evil." or King James: "Abstain from all appearance of evil." Isaiah 32:6 "For fools speak folly, their hearts are bent on evil: They practice ungodliness and spread error concerning the LORD; the hungry they leave empty and from the thirsty they withhold water." It's imperative to keep our eyes on Christ at all times, and our spirits filled with His Truth. Thank you for sharing. Be well. R

It is rather medieval to think that evil lurks. If God is all-powerful and all-knowing, then everything that God produces for us is for our own good.

What I think the Coronavirus is doing is waking up the whole world to the idea that we are not separated by nationality, ethnicity or religion. We are all human and we have to heed what we are doing to our home, our nest. It is time we quit disagreeing and start working together on positive action to save our home and us.
