About this ebook
From the poem titled, Dcor by Raymond Grant.
Far from a spectators glance is a chance to draw some in.
Far from an outward look is the message spoken within.
The peace of God
The mercy of God
The love of God without end.

KINGDOM COME
A Pictureless Sky
Imagine a pictureless sky.
Why?
What is said will be—
When the time comes,
If you’re aware of the time to come,
What is seen will be undone by the undoing of man
For sinful deeds in following the initiator of sin—the devil.
Picture no light
Or the light of day falling away
Never to return.
Is this a perfect picture?
Is this one which pleases the eye
Or brings comfort to the heart?
Surely not.
But surely these things and more will come to pass
Before that great and terrible day—
A day of joy and terror,
Hope and despair,
Fate and judgment.
A day like no other
Or ever shall be.
Rewards for the faithful,
But the guilty will be judged, to their despair.
An Hour to Come
An hour to come
Where there is no room for fun.
Instead, the desperate cries to save one’s soul.
How many would dare come if they had known their outcome?
Will you cry to them with passion and mercy?
Call to them
That they might be saved from the hour to come,
Which no one knows?
Yet, it stands sure,
And surely the end is not calm.
Appropriating Favor
Appropriating the favor of God is by way of
