Passion 1 – The Beginning
“In the beginning God created the world”
For one brief moment
Man’s passion was Him
That had brought life into being
Then a look away that passion was changed
To evil and sin and not to Him
Man was passionate in lust,
In greed and power.
It makes me think about our world today,
A modern, sophisticated and self-centered time.
What are my passions?
What make my soul rock?
God created my passion
So where is it now?
Does it focus in Him
Or the world we live in?
Questions are answered
But, where does it lead?
I guess we need to go
All the way to the end
To find what is encapsulated
In the one little work
That can be so evil
And yet so pure
The word I’m talking about
Is the word PASSION.
