And A Little Child Will Lead Them

Psalms 14, a psalm of David...the Folly and Wickedness of Men


The fool hath said in his heart,
There is no God.

They are corrupt,
they have done abominable works,
there is none that doeth good.

The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.

They are all gone aside,
they are all together become filthy:
there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
who eat up my people as they eat bread,
and call not upon the LORD.

There were they in great fear:
for God is in the generation of the righteous.

Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor,
because the LORD is his refuge.

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!

When the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people,
Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

"She didn't run from you, she was taken. She was too happy, Fate recycled her. Stole her mind.. wiped it all away. Everything. She didn't even know....she was pregnant."

Backed into the darkened corner,
forced to sift through the ashes once again.
He'd been there before.
Another life, another wife, a fire caused by a jealous fate that detroyed happiness.
Sent him into the bottomless pit.
Forsaken by God, forsaken by love, forsaken by a Savior.

Until he walked into her art studio.
She thumbed her nose at Fate and saved him.
And God smiled.

Oh ye man of wicked foolishness.
There is a God, a fitting opponant for Fate.
And all you have to do is believe.
Believe and never let go of hope.
Never let go of....her.

The panther stopped its pacing.
He lay down with the lamb, refusing to fight any longer.
Gave God thanks for the voices of his children,
And slept at last.

"He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes,
or decide by what he hears with his ears;
but with righteousness he will judge the needy,
with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth.
He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth;
with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked.
Righteousness will be his belt
and faithfulness the sash around his waist.
The wolf will live with the lamb,
the leopard will lie down with the goat,
the calf and the lion and the yearling together;
and a little child will lead them."

Isaiah 11:3-6
