Never-Ever Assume - A Poem by Sandra Dukes

“Never-Ever Assume”
Whoever guards his mouth and tongue
Keeps his soul from troubles. Proverbs 21:23 KJV

Never Assume you know someone else’s sin
It may be dirty thoughts that are festering from within
What you Think you know
or what you Think you see
Takes focus off of your own needs for total liberty
Never Assume you know someone else’s sin

Never Assume you know someone else’s sin
It is a trickster’s way to a shameful end
Never- Ever Assume you know someone else’s sin

It may be mind games set for your own captivity
A sign that gossip is an ongoing adversity
James gives notice and Proverbs speaks of the tongue
Slander will never be the way Christ victory is won
Never Assume you know someone else’s sin

Never Assume you know someone else’s sin
It maybe what you would have done if given the same opportunity
BUT it does not mean it is the truth And should be viewed with wisdom or integrity
Stop assuming you know everything
because that is a haughty spirit that the devil brings
Never Assume you know someone else’s sin

Shed off the old and dress into the new
This is the virtue we should always strive to DO
For a busybody garment is the “Least to Achieve”
And is ALWAYS accessorized with jealousies
Never – Ever -Assume you know someone else’s sin

Never Assume you know someone else’s sin
This is a silly woman’s beginning and a foolish man’s end
It may be that you should concentrate on you
And I should concentrate on me
Catalogued and clothed in the fashion and Spirit of true Christianity
Never – Ever – Ever -Assume you know someone else’s sin©
