The Devil Twists God's Words & Desires. Poem by Tom Zart

The Devil Twists God's Words & Desires.



Crying out to God is a spiritual request
Whatever the cause, we seek relief from stress.
Though the problem can be dangerous, painful or sad
As we pray to the Lord to provide and bless.


Our plea to the Master is rooted in faith
That He will answer His children with direction.
When we fail to listen and heed God's call
We fall prey to the sins of deception.

To entice believers to doubt and disobey
The Devil twists God's words and desires.
To excuse our wrongs and blame others
While the arsons of hell fan the fires.

The first humans lost both Eden's splendor
And a perfect communion with God's grace.
Unconfessed sin can separate us from glory
As we cling to heaven's pearl of space.
