What If

What if?
By Marion L. Jones

What if
I had one eye, would I take it off of Him?
That one eye looks the other way towards the world of sin.
All the pity partying that you do.
Won’t help you in the long run, you still be you.

What if
I had no money and my mind is telling me to take the easy way to make it.
That it’s only lead to death, destruction, and jail with your own new carbon steel bracelet.

What if
Your children acting up, you just throw in the towel and say “I don’t care anymore.”
They are stealing from you to get high, cussing you out. You too scared to go old school and knock them to floor.

The leaders of the churches is not who they claim to be.
Having affairs, doing their on things, or more about what’s in the offering plate.
Not interested in saving souls but when the church is going to buy him a new car for other Pastors to see.

Hmmm makes you think huh?
Now here’s the kicker

What if
The Lord had turn His back on us?
Went screaming and hollering to the cross and said “It’s not worth the fuss.
Never was born to die and live again, where you would be?
Totally in the dark, no even a flashlight with not a thing to see.
I’m included in this poem too,
He’s telling me to step up my game, my family and you.


What if
You give thanks to the Almighty God for what He’s done thus far.
He’ll never leave you nor forsake you, even if He has to put you behind bars.
Drop to your knees; go to your secret place. But nevertheless, shut the door.
He has a blessing for you in stored.

What if
You just get one on one with Him today. It’s not too late.
His hands are open wide; all you have to do is take hold.
This day could be your last, might not see another sunrise, you just won’t awake.
Then it will be too late.

What if

… The time is NOW
