In the affairs of men today;
Being captain of their own fate,
They refuse to allow Him sway.
Being moved by their own passions,
They refuse to allow Him room;
As they're ruled by earthly wisdom,
They have thereby sealed their doom.
All the while, God bides His time
And lets them run their course;
When their wisdom comes to naught,
There'll be ample time for remorse.
We, as Christians, must pave the way,
With the fear of God our guide--
Exposing the fallacy of their unbelief,
On which they have relied.
When instead we live by faith
Lives they cannot explain,
We will have forsaken our wisdom
And in the Life of our Lord remain. (Jn. 15:5)
When they follow the life we live,
They should be drawn to our Lord;
We have been crucified with Christ,
As it is written in His Word. (Gal. 2:20)
- C. R. Solomon 10-12-11
