Poem: Empty Rhetoric
The words of empty rhetoric,
don’t impress the unsaved;
Love requires real actions
of Faith; one day, a grave
will contain soiled remnants
of how, we were perceived;
the memories others recall,
are what they often received-
by the witness of our lives.
Before men, we’re justified
through our works of Love;
yet, it’s Christ crucified…
that serves as the impetus
behind our true motivations;
He’s the standard for living
and grace against damnation
of our eternal souls.
