Poetry
Stop and Pray
There was an earthquake the other day
Is that what it takes for people to stop and pray?
When everything is going good
People are enjoying life, as they should
When life starts to take a different turn
People began to run
They run to God to ask him to stop the pain
But did they remember to thank him when they had gained
It amazing how we all what the good things in life
A man wants a good wife
A woman wants a good man
Is all of this a part of God’s master plan?
God wants us to know Him as the Father,
Yet we would rather not bother
It’s too much trouble to do things God’s way
We don’t have time to stop and pray today
Do you want to see Heaven’s Gate?
Tomorrow may be too late.
God sent His only begotten Son so that whom ever believes in Him would not perish but have everlasting life.
Many say Jesus was just a man without a wife.
The word says Jesus is the way, the truth and the life
Without Him, eternity will be strife.
Will it take another earthquake, Sodom and Gomorrah, or 911 to make us stop and pray?
I pray not, I want to live to see another day.
God’s says if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways, they will hear from heaven and I will heal their land.
Now that’s the Master’s Plan.
Stop and pray.
So that we can live to see another day.
Repentance is one of the keys to salvation
God wants to save all of His creation.
Let’s not wait another day
Now is the time to stop and pray.
