THEN GOD BLESSED THEM
When God made Man, He planned to bless;
Male and Female were given equal access.
They would be blessed with the power to subdue;
They would be able to be righteous and holy too!
Man would be blessed with bearing the image of God;
He would be above all other creatures made by the Lord.
He would be given dominion over all forms of life;
He would be able to emerge victorious in any strife!
Man would also be blessed with powers of procreation;
With this blessing must come true and responsible action.
Man has been so greatly blessed but he is blighted by sin;
Cleansing is needed from the Lord from deep within.
When Man struggled and failed miserable in his endeavour;
God sent the Lord Jesus Christ to be the world’s Saviour.
To all who come to faith in Christ Jesus the Son of Man;
To them God reveals His full and complete salvation’s Plan.
