APPLE OF GOD’S EYE

Apple seed planted with promise

Offers growth of a tree as God’s plan.

Tiny seeds with God’s assigned anointing

Are nurtured lovingly by God and by man.

 

The tree soon flourished offering branches.

Buds and blossoms burst forth in Spring.

But why does the orchard need spraying?

To kill the worm eggs. Spray evil things.

 

Sins are like eggs on fragile blossoms.

Tiny eggs create damage there.

First the blossoms, then the bud grows larger

Growing worms destroy baby fruit unaware.

 

Sins planted throughout life, hardly noticed.

Evil developments offer familiarity too.

One day sin breaks forth in each person.

Sin grew uncontrolled and unnoticed by few.

 

We’re all born in sin, says the Bible.

We all need a Savior. It is true.

Accept God’s plan for redemption

Jesus died for all sinners means YOU  too.

 

A says ADMIT you’re a sinner.

says BELIEVE on the Lord.

C says CONFESS that you’ve trusted Him

Now open your heart to God’s Word.

 

Soon, you will blossom in due season.

Sometimes you will feel pruning, God’s kind.

God treasures your life for  His reasons.

You’re the “APPLE OF GOD’S EYE” for these times.
