shiny apple.

once upon a time
there once was a tree
of good and evil

on that tree..a forbidden
fruit grew..it was shiny
it looked so DELECTABLE
and smelled divine as an
entire orchard of the finest
fruit.

adam and eve were
specifically told not
eat this fruit.

one day they went by the
tree and met a snake
this snake had a split tongue
with a devilish twist

this destructive twisting
tongue slurred lispy lies
into their ears

eve fell for the deception
and ate the fruit

adam soon followed

the apple was delicious as
expected
each bite
more tasty than the last

but soon.. the bites grew bitter

eventually they hit a razor bladed
core...
this sharp center split their tongues

their tongues split like the snake
and they became like the lowly animal
crawling on their bellies

............

remember that things seem fun and fantastic from afar but sometimes fun and fantastic has an awful evil twin named TERROR. terror sweeps in with its razor centered lies. when we bite these lies we become like snakes.. lowly beings banished from the beauties of life. we keep on biting forbidden fruit until we can;t stop.


god isn;t trying to be a jerk when he says" don't eat that fruit, its not good for you" he is trying to keep us from destroying our POTENTIAL. we all have great potential and were not created to slither around on our bellies like serpents.

like the switchfoot song "we were meant to live for so much more"

dont eat the shiny apple with the razor center
just because you got stuck in a jigsaw puzzle of bliss and adventure

remember that JESUS CHRIST can save you from anything, just read the bible.

if you don;t believe in christ... at least love yourself enough to avoid the tree of good and evil. if you don't know how to love yourself enough to avoid this tree.. maybe GOD is your only answer.

you don't have to spend your whole life crawling like a snake on the floor..
god can teach you how to walk
and even how to fly.

give him a try


"Know also that wisdom is sweet to your soul; if you find it, there is a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off". ~ Proverbs 24:14

god loves all of us screw ups

taste his sweet wisdom.. and throw away that rotten razor apple.
