Short Stories
Sometimes things in life just fall apart. I wondered about my life. Here, only a few years, I was on top of the world. Then, GOD, came into my life. All around me, I saw vanity. Images, that I worshiped. Spent hours in reverence. They took control of my life and ways of thinking.
I myself was naive to the real meaning of GRAVEN IMAGES as in GODS second commandment.Then, I saw the graven images in the movies, on television, verbal graven images in songs, ads in papers, magazines, all portraying an image.
My eye's were opened and I was bowing to these images. They took control of my life. Style, fashion, status, social standing. Do this, do that, this is proper, that is right, all part of a beast like monster surrounding me.
A friend told me these were all inventions of man. Motives varied, but they were not GODS or GODS ways. He gave me a Bible to read and that was what opened my eyes to this reality. I told the friend, I was happy for his opinion and help. He said, even King Solomon in all his glory, followed other Gods. GOD took the kingdom away in due time.
The friend said, "many take light of GOD". But, GOD is real and not some big sugar-daddy in the sky, doing nice things and bad things. There are LAWS and ways, that GOD wants people to live. GOD, is a rewarder and a bringer of wrath upon ungodly. GOD, killed all on earth in the flood of NOAH, except 8.
Thanks for the help friend. Keep the faith and stay away from those idols. So, the sun does rise and set in it's traverse of time.
