Matt 5:14

Granted that it is not a crime,
I’m not going to resist writing this post in rhymes.
Because I’m never one to dampen creativity,
God’s wisdom always blooms boundless spontaneity.

So many things to say,
Where shall I start?
From the very minor of issues,
Or right from the major part?

Alright,
Having considered all possible merits,
I shall pen this post whilst being led by the Spirit.

I reckon this will be (rather) long,
So please bear with me,
As I endeavour to avoid any form,
Of deceitfulness or duplicity.

This is firstly an open letter,
Addressed to those whose hearts are broken.
I’ll also interpose my short discourse,
With thoughts that I’ve not yet spoken.

To all ye who are nursing broken hearts,
Borne of relationships that have fallen apart:

Bask not in sorrow anymore,
I implore you, whatever for?
If you earnestly seek recovery,
Read about God’s promises for you in Matthew 5:4.

His Word declares,
That the greatest love,
Is of God & He draws from limitless reserves (Romans 8:39).

If he or she was truly meant for you,
Expect God to bless the relationship through & through.

But if in your heart of hearts,
A settled peace never did transpire (Philippians 4:7),
It’s God’s supernatural way,
Of leading you away,
From the woes that’ll cause you to suffer.

He loves you too much,
To give you up (Deuteronomy 31:8),
To a relationship destined for failure,
Right from the start.

Because you have chosen to honour God,
Your decision is with Him in one accord (1 Corinthians 8:3).

Therefore rejoice,
Because God has promised His people,
That they will be restored with double,
For all their pains & troubles (Isaiah 61:7).
