God, The Sovereign Lord Of Creation Poem by Denis Martindale

The Lord God said, "Let there be light! " Creation was then born
Yet with God's words there came insight, a rose that bore a thorn.
For with the length and breadth of time must come the good and bad,
The precious moments quite sublime and opposites quite sad.
Such that Creation groaned to see the righteous Sons of God,
The ones God saved at Calvary, redeemed by Christ's Own blood…
God's covenant of years ago, involved the suns and stars,
As long as these are there to know, Creation shall not pass.
Some prophesy each world will freeze as aeons take their toll,
As all the energies decrease, no more to take control.
Some prophesy that gravity exerts its power at length,
Compressing space till it reverts and loses all its strength.
As if time forms a long-term loop that's ordained to repeat,
Such that the atoms then regroup their mission to complete.
God knows the start, God knows the end, why else would He create?
God's seen it all, on that depend… it's destiny, it's fate.
No matter what the minds of men envision or conceive,
The Lord knows how… why… what… and when… and bids us to believe.
That's why God sent His only Son, to die and rescue us.
So that lost souls could still be won, through the love of Jesus.
Because Christ died and took our place, God's Heaven we behold.
Eternal life, the gift of grace: The greatest story ever told…
