Listen to this illustration <br />I'm telling all the nations <br />And all the nations with my brothers <br />My brothers and my sisters <br />Family in Christ <br /> <br />This is a description <br />Of all of us that are Christian <br />And no, this is not fiction <br />So you better keep <br />Your ears open <br />And be ready to listen <br /> <br />There is a bride <br />Working on her dress <br />And the rest <br />Trying to look her best <br />so that the groom doesn't think she's too messed <br />and so that He'll think, 'yes - <br />she's the one I'll marry for sure' <br />give Him the best <br /> <br />While she’s doing what she's doing <br />She is doing and she’s waiting <br />She is cleaning up and fixing <br />Doing all that she can <br />Before she’s gets to see <br />The great bridegroom <br /> <br />Now this is our story <br /> <br />She could be you <br />She could be me <br />She could be anyone on the street <br />She could be him <br />She could be her <br />Could be inside or outside the church <br /> <br />Whether it's wrong <br />Whether it's right <br />My message is that we have to decide <br />If you’re gonna be like that bride <br />And prepare for His coming again <br />Yes He’s reached out His hand <br />The hand of a friend <br />And He has soo much help to lend <br />And He don’t pretend, no <br /> <br />The first time, that he came <br />He taught us to love, and not to blame <br />And this put our enemies to shame <br />Because all they sought was power, money and fame, yeah <br /> <br />He asks us to be like Him <br />Otherwise we lose that engagement ring <br />That He bestowed on us <br />When He gave love to us <br />He said He'll be beside us <br />All the way <br /> <br />What is your answer?<br /><br />Julius Victorio<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-bride-18/
