Habakkuk 2

Then the Lord replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay."

The Pathway

She walked along a pathway 

And stumbled over stones. 

The pathway was not clear for her, 

And so she oft did roam. 


Her trinkets were her treasure,

But not to others give.

She selfishly held on to those

And not for Christ did live.


He in his pride was selfish,

Held on to all his sins.

Addiction was his pride and joy,

But not to Christ souls win.


His pleasure, all that mattered,

Supplied his every need.

He not concerned for those he hurt,

His belly he did feed.


They wandered life together,

Thought only of themselves,

Although they claimed belief in Christ,

They lived their lives for self.


They bought into deception,

And followed all the lies

That told them they could live in sin,

Although truth it belies.


Now they are an example

Of how we’re not to live.

For we should live for Jesus Christ,

Our lives now to Him give.


We die to selfish pleasures,

Obey our Lord’s commands.

We follow where our Savior leads

And share our helping hands.
