The Angel’s Story
The mountain stood erect
And caught everyone’s eyes who passed.
Gold gems and jewels
All over the mountain glued fast.
It was a beautiful thing
Built up over many years of time,
But underneath the glory
Was the heart of a young woman dying.
No one could hear her calls
Or see her awful suffering
But as the days passed by
Death became her way of living.
She died to all she knew was right
And instead lived in the flesh.
She sacrificed her happiness
For what she thought was best.
But as the days passed
And she grew more miserable
In order to ease her ache
She did deeds that were horrible.
She wallowed in her filth
And completely destroyed the mount.
Every person who passed by
Was stricken by the painful shouts.
As time wore on
And her deeds grew worse
God sent in an angel
To help with her soul’s thirst.
That angel told her a story
That she never could forget.
And I will tell you now
If you think about accepting.
He told her of a story
Of a man long ago
Who lived in a stable
In conditions lower than low.
But that young man
No matter where he went
Always left a mark
Of love Heaven sent.
In the end of the tale
The ones who loved Him most
Ended up betraying him
And letting him die the worst.
He was hung upon a tree
In all manner of misery
With every sin of man
Laid upon his bare hands.
The blood that was spilt
The pain that was caused
Has no one else to blame
But your filthy cause.
In a frightful moment
The woman jerked back from the tale
And began to weep loudly
Scarcely restraining a wail.
The angel silenced her
And told her to sit down.
The man was not killed
But laid His own life down.
The man was never murdered
But rather sacrificed
That you and I might live
A life upon us graced.
All that you must do
Is accept that gift He gives
To turn around from Hell
And go to Heaven where He lives.
The girl stopped her weeping
And lifted her weary eyes.
And in a word she requested
How she might accept that prize.
The angel told her how
With scarcely hiding a smile.
And now she walks toward Heaven
Praising God all the while.
Don’t destroy your mountain
Because it’s the only one you’ll get.
But rather turn to Jesus
The author of your faith.
