And Not Repeating The Word

God is holy
Yes
And His holiness does not depend on
Us saying He is holy

God is awesome 
Yes
And His awesomeness does not depend on
Us saying He is awesome

God is supreme
Yes
And His supremacy does not depend on
Us saying He is supreme

God is all powerful
Yes
And His omnipotence does not depend on
Us saying He is all powerful

God is good
Yes
And His goodness does not depend on
Us saying He is good

Yet the Christians of modern era
Seem to spend majority of the time
Praising God for His
Holiness awesomeness supremacy
Power and goodness

While spending little if any
Time repenting 
For weekly daily or hourly
Sins that make them not holy

After that one incidence of acceptance
One admittance of guilt and sins
One asking for forgiveness
It is long forgotten and not repeated

As if God forgave all future sins
In advance with one repentance
Never to be repeated again
Yearly monthly weekly or hourly

Perhaps
Since no one likes to admit guilt
No one likes to say sorry
It boils down to just praise
Singing and dancing

Gospel lost from spotlight
To fit the needs of modern society
A small footnote in the corner
Avoiding and shuddering
And not repeating the word

Repentance

For Eternity

Time flies some say
Life is short say others
Not that anyone can live
Faster than anyone else

Or have accurate knowledge
Of when they are going to die

But they do keep repeating
How life is short
And time flies

Because each day lived
Is one day closer
To the inevitable truth

That one day in the future
Will be the last day
Of their breath on this earth

But for those who have
Accepted Jesus
As Christ Lord and Savior
Will continue on living

For eternity
In heaven
