Visions: A Poetic Paradox of Life
()
About this ebook
Without an established relationship with the Creator the life of Man on earth and beyond is useless. A man was once given the choice of choosing between the wealth, riches, and fame of the earth and a narrow path that led to a mysterious destination beyond. Led by faith and clothe with humility he choosed the narrow path. That rough narrow path eventually led him to a haven of eternal bliss. There his wealth, riches, and fame knew no bounds and his happiness knew no dead end. We do not survive each tick of the clock by our own making but by the unmerited grace of the Creator. It is that unmerited grace that has sustained the continuous survival of man on earth. Knowledge, wisdom, and understanding come from the Creator, seek them and they shall be delivered unto you. The Creator loves you!

PREFACE
Without an established relationship with the Creator the life of Man on earth and beyond is futile. A man was once given the choice of choosing between the wealth, riches, and fame of the earth and a narrow path that led to a mysterious destination beyond. Led by faith and clothe with humility he choosed the narrow path. That rough narrow path eventually led him to a haven of eternal bliss. There his wealth, riches, and fame knew no bounds and his happiness knew no dead end.
The content of this book came to me by way of vision. I have written them the way they were shown to me. Understanding is the name of the Creator for no man can understand anything without His divine directions.
I do not claim as an individual to discern the meanings or know the interpretations of these verses. Neither do I claim complete understanding of anything that has not been shown unto me. It is a message, an invaluable message meant to be delivered and my part and task I have completed by delivering it. No man is perfect and as such my writing and or choice of words ( diction) may not satisfy every individuals level of comprehension. Hence, I accept full responsibility for shortcomings that are diction related. Any wise individual should read between the lines and read meaning to each message.
We do not survive each tick of the clock by our own making but by the unmerited grace of the Creator. It is that unmerited grace that has sustained the continuous survival of man on earth.
Knowledge, wisdom, and understanding come from the Creator, seek them and they shall be delivered unto you. I need not write more than I ought to write. The Creator loves you!
Imeje Fidelis.
DIDACTIC
Do good and goodness shall be your companion all your days. The heart of a man discerns between what is right and wrong before an action is taken. God is only interested in the content of a mans heart. Be good in all that you do. The collection of poems under didactic serve as instruction to man. Do not only read them but also attempt to find hidden meanings in the messages and re-examine your life.
THE CONVERT
He longed to serve God
With all of his heart and might
This he had desired for his life
But in his life he finds it hard to defeat lies and trials
At last he obliged to pitch his tent among the monks
In that sphere he grew spiritually strong
With his entire strength he struck staunchly
Prayers and praises persisted promptly
Divine consolidation and counselling characterized the confessor
Who admonish and exhort the convert to follow the upright path
Presently, the fiend and forces of the dark realm struck a foray
Desperate to frustrate this converted soul with dark loads
Thus a war is declared that he must wage on his own
To determine his stance and fate
With much ado he fought with faith to prevail
Against his downfall the mighty hand of God
Vivify him so that he does not slump nor faint
Yes indeed he vanquished without stress and much travail
Leaving behind trails of regret for the dark forces and its followers
Now at rest he sees the beautiful gate
Not many souls behold its magnificent ornament after their days on earth
Nothing there is like to serve He who sits up beyond the blues
With cordial lilt he walked his way through
To the lake of glory and happiness, chorusing praises
To the Lord God Almighty
THE TRAITOR
The scuffle was hot and tough
All fought with great might and valour
In the hope to retrieve the enemy
They thrashed and prevailed without hopes
So that they fumbled demurely into holes
Not
