The Plan

By Jerry D. Warren

I was inspired to publish my books by my granddaughter. I write my poems in a 3x5 note book and then transfer them to a larger page. She was transferring these for me for a family thing and suggested that maybe I should try to get published.

The idea was that God is omnipresent, so I took a word, wrote a poem around that word, and incorporated God into the poem since He is everywhere at once. Many of my poems were inspired while attending church service. I believe that some if not all are inspired by the Holy Spirit. The battle between good and evil is ongoing. The only way to overcome evil is through Jesus Christ.

Hopefully this book will inspire someone the turn to God/Jesus for guidance through the challenges of the day by day living we all face.

THE PLAN

38502.png

God, the creator of man

And all things that exist

He also created a woman

Her whims, Adam could not resist

Tempting of Eve by Satan

His form was of a serpent

Adam and Eve’s eyes were open

For this sin, they could not repent

Adam and Eve ate the fruit forbidden

Their eyes opened to shame

They tried to be hidden

God said all three were to blame

For the sin they admitted

From Eden they had to leave

To dust the serpent was committed

By Adam, Eve did conceive

For the knowledge of wrong from right

Death was the result

They lost their eternal light

To God it was a direct insult

God still loves them

They are part of His creation

Man made in image of Him

With man God wants a personal relation

God has a continuous plan

Before earth foundations were laid

Some things I cannot understand

Idols for my God, I will
