"Be still, and know that I am God; And do as you are told; You'll ignore Him, to your cost, Just like these, in days of old: Now Sodom and Gomorrah Were so caught up in trash, They wouldn't listen to the Lord--- So He turned them into ash. And Lot's wife wouldn't listen, So it was her own fault; She looked back when she shouldn't, And God turned her into salt! The people back in Noah's time Thought he was strange, no doubt--- God said, "They will not listen, So I'm going to flood them out." And Jonah wouldn't listen, When God told him His wish--- He tried to run away from God, But got ate up by a fish! Even Paul, the great apostle, At first put up a fight--- 'Til one day on Damascus road, God took away his sight. There are plenty more examples; In the pages of God's word; Pay heed to them, and learn from them: Learn to listen to the Lord! |
