HIGH HORSES:

Honoring God Through Poetry

The mighty of the earth 
do indeed sit tall,
but shamelessly, 
not brave or strong;
they refuse to do for 
the 'little people;'
cursing their own necks 
all the day long.

And Satan does indeed cover them
from the exposure that may end their reign,
so they may sit perched high on their horses;
in conviction of their lies before the insane.

For God is surely separating 
the sheep, and goats;
the wheat and tares,
but we trust our Savior,
Who removes fear in Truth,
and soothes 
our most troublesome cares.

They persecute the unknowing, 
and the naive,
like the poor little Lass,
but the wise 
can see right through them
just as if they were made of thin, 
severely weakened glass.

And this is KEY
to our eyes being opened;
that it's never been more clear
as to whom are God's enemies,
and to whom we may trust without fear.
So, for now 
they will go on deceiving the wicked;
but their time of doom 
is growing more and more near,
they are the ones Satan has fooled,
and they are ones 
who should be shedding
mountains of tears.

Sitting on their high horses,
they confirm their agenda 
with the inhumane; so very lost,
for they know not the law of meekness,
just the pursuit of greed;
casting away the care of its cost.

Still the faithful keep them in prayer;
knowing their forever doom will come 
with a great surprise,
for while we float gently upward,
we will no longer have a chance 
to sway such fateful cries.

Oh how sadly they know not
the ONLY ONE
Who sits on a horse 
so very mighty and so very high
is JESUS, Who is on His Way 
to shatter their world,
as He breaks apart the atmosphere, 
with His Appearance in the sky!

"For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words." (1Thessalonians 4:15-18, nkjv)
