It was never meant to be
And although we prayed earnestly for same,
Certain prayers will go unanswered
Where disappointments may remain.
And it was never meant to be
Because behind the scenes God saw,
The conversations that took place
And hence He firmly shut that door.
It was never meant to be
For us to be estranged from Him,
But it’s the choices that we make
When we prefer to love our sin.
God created paradise
From the very start,
But mankind wanted more
And did not have a grateful heart.
It was never meant to be
That souls end up in hell,
Since it was for the devil and his angels
Who through rebellion chose to dwell.
It was never meant to be
For war and chaos in our soul,
But when free-will worships the flesh
Unrighteousness it will unfold.
It was never meant to be
That unforgiveness cloaks our soul,
Since its tentacles will choke us
When it becomes a firm stronghold.
But it was always meant to be
That we are reconciled to Christ,
Through His sacrifice on the cross
And to have eternal life.
