The Crossroads of Fate

I watched you drift
Off
Away.
I held on to the hope
That you’d be back someday.
My heart was racing
My stomach churned,
The ground, it crumbled,
I
f
e
l
l,
I burned.
What caught my fall
I did not care,
Fire, acid,
All was fair.
The end, it never came.

I SCREAMED!

Will anything cease this pain?
Or am I destined for this macabre game?
Have I not played well?
Are you not amused?
Is there joy to be found in my suffering?
Or am I just a fool?
Bad goes to worse, worse amplifies.
Is there meaning to this cycle I despise?

[PEACE]

Cutting through the negativity,
Switching polarities,
The most serene voice
To ever grace humanity.
Jesus, himself,
Freezing time and space,
To impart these words to me
At the Crossroads of Fate.

“My son, have I wronged you?
My words are true.
I have promised you to her,
And her to you.
All my actions are love,
I cannot do otherwise,
All the forces in the world
Cannot make me tell a lie.
The path you walk
Will lead you to a better life,
All your wildest dreams,
At the end of this road lie.
So come, let us walk,
We have much distance to travel.
My son, did you think I would forsake you,
In this, your hardest battle?”

Even when you feel like things cannot be worse, The Lord takes us and guides us to places where we mature. His divine plan is grand, He is sovereign over all things. He acts out of love and gives us everything. Whoa.. That was almost another poem right there haha. The Lord is good. Anywho the enemy just tries so hard to turn us against God but their attempts are futile. The enemy’s best pales in comparison to God’s least. So jokes on you Satan. You heard me.

    Looove the ending. The Lord makes a plate and then He steps up to it ;) He doesn’t let us experience anything too early – He always prepares us. Gotta love the prophetic for that. God bless you dear… In every way :>

  • The Lord always has perfect timing. His divine plan is so epic. So perfect. Thank you so much. God bless you too.

    P.S. I love the ending too. Heck, I didn’t even have to write it. Lol. Caught me right off guard.

    Oh yea, isn’t this the truth. The enemy will also come to you disguised as a wolf in sheep’s clothing to try to make you doubt yourself and get you to do something to slip so he can then point his finger and accuse you. I ran this gambit for awhile but when I finally realized that the devil has NO more power over me, I have stood and faced him on many occasions and still do. I think I ticked him off and now he tries to trip me up every day, but to him I say, “Devil, I’m not impressed!” I know the sound of the Shepherd’s voice when I hear it. Some profess to know Christ and yet find faults and say, “I’m not judging you but…” Dead giveaway, this is not from the Lord.

  • I know exactly what you speak of Viv! The enemy is so conniving and if we don’t realize that they are always there, ready to pounce on our mistakes and ready to fill our minds with lies when we let our guard down, well, the results can be frightening and disastrous. But we are never alone and our Lord will never condemn us. He loves us and cares about us and our role is very simple: to love The Lord with all our body, heart, mind and soul and to love each other as we would love ourselves. Everything else, when given into His loving hands never needs to cross our minds again.
    (a poem of mine: Sorry, Again)
    I’m sorry
    I’ll never be perfect,
    But I swear I’m only human,
    Can you accept me for my flaws
    Or will seeing them give you a reason,
    To throw them in my face
    And point out every mistake I’ve made,
    As opposed to helping me overcome them.
