Answer True Love's Call.....
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 2 times

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson


That until now, still few believe

Doubts eyes will open wide

When the world at large will conceive

Miracles prophesied

 

When world televisions display

The emptiness behind

When Jesus took His bride away

While most remained stock blind

 

“Too late, too late,” will be the cry

Realisation will dawn

“What will happen when we die

Where no one else is reborn”

 

Revelation; reveals it all

Bible gospels explain

All sinful souls, in hell, will fall

Not being born-again

 

Found faithless in God, Christ His Son

Where love was magnified

When true life through blood was won

Through Jesus, crucified

 

The place is here, the time’s now

The reason’s made clear

For life; in faith, man’s knees must bow

To learn to live down here

 

Obedience is to life, the key

True love, instead of hate

Humble servitude willing and free

Will help close hell’s wide gate

 

But it’s Jesus, only Jesus

Who for us chose to die

Who promised never to leave us

When answering His cry.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
