The Two-Edged Sword
Vices and Sin
Pride it comes in many forms
Anger rage selfishness just some of the emotions
But one of the worst is jealousy
This is truly the opposite of humility
Since Original Sin entered society
All vices became the Devil’s priority
It began early on when man killed man
Over an offering to God did Abel die at the hands of Cain
The enigma concupiscence is now with us constantly
But we can fight and overcome it if we pray
What we must do as people of the Lord
We must try to live virtuous and heed His Word
Diminishing our ego and self will
By listening and doing His Will always not just until
Then will we become more able to love everyone
And learn to avoid evil to walk away or to run
Learn to live in the Lord’s way
Trust in Him and always will you be joyful and happy
Amen
