The snake sneers -
his coils shifting.
His lies pounding at your ears -
you want to cry -
"help me!" -
you cry out -
and you fear that silence -
will be the answer -
but there is something -
love.
He loves you -
loves us -
his arms are ready -
open, waiting.
Without Him -
we are nothing -
we reap the reward -
left for us by the ruler of this world -
who entered it -
falling.
But He offered us -
something precious -
life.
His blood gave us life.
Trust -
we are as nothing -
nothing but dust -
without him -
without Our First Love.
Author notes
This is a quickie that I wrote just after reading the prompt... I hope you don't mind... It's not that good, but I hope someone out there likes it anyways... And I hope that it helps someone to know that God is always there, even when it seems like we are completely surrounded by darkness. We are never alone. He is always there - He is our light. Cry out and He will answer. But always remember, God has His own timing. Everything is for His glory and the benefit of those who believe in Him. If you suffer now, then pray that God will help you to see His glory through it and teach you something more.
I will pray for you,
~Ayven
