.. A Day with The Lord is as 1000 years to man - 2nd Peter, 3:8
{Answers The Six Day Creation Question.}
THIRD EARTH AGE {The Day of The Lord}
This is the age of lessons learned, when truth shines forth so real
a time for which His people yearned - time HE will now reveal.
Faith is no longer required to pull us through loss and despair,
His presence has now inspired Love to rule everywhere!
Gone are the days of deception - The Liar now in chains,
for, since the false star's deception, chaos has held the reins.
Outward appearance misled us - believing with our eyes;
all that the enemy fed us, in his shepherd's disguise.
Tradition was the guiding force behind decisions then,
man thought of himself as the source; The who, what, where and when.
People, like sheep, can be fickle - chasing each sight and sound,
treating life as a vehicle, not caring where they're bound.
Colliding with Truth awakens those asleep at the wheel,
leaving them hurting and shaken - ready to see what's Real.
Suffering came for a season; exposing ALL hopes and fears,
proving that Love has a reason beyond the heartache and tears.
Priorities ARE the question; What matters most in life?
Attention? Wealth? or Digestion?, Giving? Family? Wife?
God knows the answer completely; The long-term Highest Good,
His song can now echo sweetly - in all hearts understood.
Yes, we can put aside blindness, each mind can see and hear
the lasting nature of kindness - Tough-Love, tempered and clear.
Now The Accuser is quiet, with his friends in the dark
no longer whispering 'try it - put on my selfish mark.'
Babylon was his ambition; making confusion grow -
tyranny always the mission, like puppets in his show.
He claimed mankind was faithless*, not worth the grief and pain
The Father suffered to send us, lasting hope once again...
This is the test of Salvation; self-love? or self-giving love?
Choose now your kingdom and nation - Kenite**, or child from above?
Your work now proves what you love most; Satan, or God's presence here -
the confidence when your lips boast, reveals which kingdom is dear.
These lessons never came easy, Lies were allowed to rule
in hearts beguiled and uneasy, teaching even the fool.
Only One Kingdom is future; the others helped us to see
how selfish love has no future - self-GIVING is True Harmony!

First Comments on This Poem:
July, 1999 -
"..I Liked the stanza which read :
People, like sheep, can be fickle -
following each new sound,
treating life as a vehicle
not caring where they're bound.
To me, it seems as if people now are always looking for the 'quick-fix'
or 'fast amusement'. I am a fairly spiritual person when it comes to
nature, and it just seems like people can not enjoy the view of the lake
without being in a fast boat or the ethereal beauty of the desert without
tearing through it on a dirt bike, or the surreal beauty of the Grand Canyon
without flying over it in a helicopter. It's sad... "

Footnote:
..This generation is feeling the birth pangs and shaking
before the earth can be replaced.
There is no free ride ~ every heart must be tested
and totally convinced about His Lasting Kingdom,
or be cut-off from the source of Life by their own choices.
There could be NO Eternal Kingdom if another
rebellion erupted, and only The Father knows
the hearts and minds well enough to avoid that happening again.
To me, this is the purpose of The Millennium ~{The Day of The Lord}
assuring that All have heard the Truth clearly,
We only hear fragments of lasting truth now. -ks
