WRITINGS ON A WALL




IN A KINGDOM FAR AWAY           
WHERE MEN GO TO PONDER AND PRAY
THERE’S A SIGN ON THE WALL
THAT SAYS
PAIN IN A HUMAN IS AN INSULT TO GOD
PAIN IN A HUMAN THWARTS GOD’S PLAN

IT’S A WALL BEFORE WHICH
SEEKERS SIT PONDERING

WHAT ARE ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR ME
DOES IT HAVE IMPLICATIONS BEYOND ME
CAN I IGNORE IT OR SHOULD I

WE’RE NOT TALKING ABOUT SELF INFLICTED PAIN
LIKE WORK
EXERCISE
PLAY
GIVING BIRTH

BUT PAIN INFLICTED BY OTHERS
WITH NO CONCERN
FOR THEIR VICTIMS
OR WORSE
ENJOYING IT

GOD WANTED WHAT WAS BEST FOR HIS CREATION
INFLICTED PAIN
GOES COUNTER TO HIS DREAM
FOR HIS CREATION

SO A COMMON CONSENT
OF THOSE STUDYING THE WALL WAS
HOW DOES MY CONDUCT AFFECT OTHERS

IF MY CONDUCT AFFECTS GOD’S PLAN
WHAT DROSS WILL I GAIN
TO HURT GOD’S PLAN
