There Is No Ease

Life is a vapor

passing like morning mist

Flies like chaff in the wind,

bubbling soda fizz.

The days are evil,

easy lives don't exist.

All have their own tasks

and it's my job not his.

This life is hard

and that's just the way it is.

When grass on the other side

greener you see

Don't get angry

with bitter jealous envy.

All grass must be mowed

and weeds there yet may be.

Before the Fall there was all

life, joy, peace and ease

Find these now in Christ alone.

Don't be deceived.
