Jul. 9, 2008 - A touching poem
I had on new clothes,
New sneakers on my feet.
I was there for class on time,
Went to the back and took my seat.
Yeah, I'm moving up,
I'm already grown.
Soon i'll be graduating,
And out on my own.
I talked to some of my friends,
We were all having fun.
Said some things I shouldn't have said. Did stuff I shouldn't have done.
I knew I was different....
I felt God touch my heart,
I knew I should set a standard,
But then I'd be set apart.
Walking to the bus, I was not looking for strength.
Iheard the car tires screeching,
But now it's too late.
I'm standing in this room,
And I can see the heavenly gate....
Oh no! I never prayed.
I thought I had time to get it straight!
An angel walked to me,
He had a book in his hand.
I knew it was the Book of Life, when would this dream end?
I told him my name,
and he began to look.
Then he looked at me sadly and said,
Your name is not in this book.
Angel, this is a dream,
no, i cant be dead!
He closed the book and turned away,
He whispered - you cannot
proceed ahead
No.....no this can't be real,
angel, you can't turn me away.
Let me talk to God,
maybe he'll let me stay.
He led me to the gate,
Jesus came to me.
He did not let me in but said,
Beloved what is your need?
Jesus, I cried, please,
don't cast me away from you.
Tears ran down his face and he said,
you knew what you needed to do.
Lord, please I'm young,
I never thought i would die...
I thought I'd have plenty of time,
Death caught me by suprise.
Lord, I went to church,
Please Jesus, I believe.
He said you would not accept me,
My love you would not recieve.
Lord, there were too many hypocrites. they weren't being true.
He took a step back and asked,
What does that have to do with you?!
Lord, my family claimed to be saved, they weren't real you know.
He said, I died for you,
now I have to go.
I fell on my knees crying to him,
Lord, I planned to be real tomorrow.
I couldn't make Him understand,
I had never felt such sorrow.
Then it hit me hard, I said,
Lord, where will I go?!
He looked into my eyes and said, my child you already know.
Please Jesus, I begged.
The place is so hot.
It seemed to trouble and grieve Him, He whispered, DEPART FROM ME I KNOW YOU NOT.
Lord, you're suppose to be love,
how can you send me to Hell?
He replied, with your mouth you said you loved me, but each day you rejected my salvation.
With that in an instant, day turned to night.
I never knew such torture could be, now too late, I know the bible is right.
If I can tell you anything, hell has no age.
It is a place of torture.
Separated from God and full of rage.
You know, I thought it was funny, a joke, but this one thing is true.
If you never accept Jesus Christ, HELL IS WAITING FOR YOU!
So please, ask Him into your heart.
Please show this to everyone you know and care about!
Your sister in Christ,
~Madison
