The devil's beatitudes

 
 
Blessed are those who are too tired,
busy or disorganised to meet with
fellow Christians on Sundays each week
They are my best workers
 
Blessed are those who enjoy noticing
the mannerisms of clergy and choir
Their hearts are not in it
 
Blessed are those Christians who wait
to be asked and expect to be thanked
I can use them
 
Blessed are the touchy
with a bit of luck they may even stop
going to Church
They are my missionaries
 
Blessed are those who claim to love God
at the same time as hating people
They are mine forever
 
Blessed are the troublemakers
They shall be called my children
 
Blessed are those who have no time to pray
They are easy pray for me
 
Blessed are you when you read or hear this and
think it is about others and
not about yourself
I’ve got you.

The Devils last Song.

Long ago I planned in my passing pride,

That to-day I would reign as king.

But where is my kingdom, where is my crown?

Is the bitter song I sing.

What joy have I won through my evil designs?

What peace in my soul wrecking plan?

I hoped to conquer both Heaven and Hell,

But I have won nothing more than man.

I can see above, o'er the bridgeless gulf.

The glorified Heaven lit strand.

My chains make me feel the double disgrace,

As I crouch 'neath the Infinite Hand.

Where are my princes, my legions of dupes,

And millions of souls I have won?

My pains and my chains are greater by far,

Because of the deeds I have done.

All my plans and my schemes in a thousand ways,

Like bubbles are blown out of sight;

My fancies and hopes like a passing dream

Are covered by shadows of night.

Come on, all ye dupes, ye millions of men,

Who heeded my wishes like fools;

Take your share for aye of the galling chains,

Under Him who in triumph rules.

You have lived and died for my noble cause,

Your eternal souls are certainly marred;

You shall see no more than glimpses of light

Of Heaven, from which you are barred.

The fling all your hopes, my friends, to the winds,

As the echo of sadness replies,

You will feel henceforth the deeper degrees,

Of the Hell which beneath us lies.

I ignore anything about Satan. I give him no power. And that includes thinking about him. My focus is always on Christ.
