A Poem: You’re Not the Devil, Just a Man

Do you realize you’re not the Devil?
Do you know you’re just a man?
Can’t you see you’ve been enslaved,
To carry out the Devil’s plan.

The world may like your charm & money,
Sex & drinks may be like ice-cream with honey,
Women may fall for the offers you throw,
But your heart longs for more than this show.

You take great pride in being somebody,
It’s nice that your acquaintances are many,
Important people sit & chat with you,
But you know that true friends who love you are few.

People look at your performance,
And the game that you cleverly play,
But God looks into your heart,
At the man you really are.

Do you see your sins are many?
They’re innumerable as sand,
But they’ll never be too many,
To be washed away by the Man.

Do you know that Jesus loves you?
Do you know that He died for you?
Do you know that His blood already bought you,
From the Devil, you thought, was you!

You belong to the Kingdom of Heaven,
Where God truly loves you,
The Devil is trying to trap you,
But that’s exactly why I feel I need to tell you.

Would you like to be forgiven?
Would you like to start anew?
Be a free man, my dear friend,
This is God’s offer to you.

Just ask Jesus to forgive you,
And you’ll become brand new!
You’re not the Devil – you’re just a man,
Sincere words from a humble friend.

-JJ-

John 3:16
For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son (Jesus Christ), so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
