Trial Question


If wrong and right was brought to light
and judged for all to see:
Which side would win, then win again?
If wrong was misery.

It seems the line, that is so fine,
if drawn as God has taught;
The wrong would be, for all to see,
the loser lost and caught.

When I was raised and Christ was praised,
my Mother taught me well.
She taught me doubt would find you out
and sinners went to hell.

But now it seems, with twisted dreams,
that truth is just a myth;
If you can show a doubt to know,
the truth is used to twist.

But right is there for those that care
and those that really try;
Cause Jesus gave, so He could save,
or did my Mother lie?

I wouldn't go so far as to call your mother a liar, instead I think she probably was lied to.

"did my Mother lie?"
No, and there can only be justice
with truth, no truth no justice.
Mom's always seem to know.

Enjoyed your write.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.

...I was taught by a lady that had six
kids and raised them alone.
...Her pride was a (she called it)
christmas fern. Every year it only
bloomed once, on Christmas.
...When she passed, It burst into full
bloom, overnight. It was the first week
of Novenber. The lady was my Mother.
See you at the judgement.     Karl
