*****Understanding*****

The first time I read the bible

It made no sense at all

I went through the pages

Thinking it would set me straight

Fill me with hope and make me feel great

But that did not happen at all.

I saw no cosmic lights.

Heard no sonic booms.

Nothing happened at all, so I thought that  I was doomed.

Then I heard the message that set me straight.

Accept the lord and have  some faith.

Get baptized in the name that is so great

Be filled with joy,  be filled with grace.

And be forgiven for my disgrace.

So this time when I read my Bible

It was as plain as it could be.

Every word on every page jumped out at me

I understood the message this time.

I felt the love that graced my mind.

I finally understood his love for me.

And now I know I will be in his kingdom

Just wait and see.

Well I know ill be.
