Look back...

Por: Pedro Paulo Costa 



There is no one 
who throws his hand 
of the plough,
and look back 
is suitable for
the kingdom of God, 
said Jesus when 
went along the way 
with his disciples...

Jesus had
on your walk,
some conversations 
with women,
who passed 
for His life,
but,
one he cited
like a sign 
warning,
who was Lot's wife,

Remember 
of Lot's wife,
who was punished 
when 
Lot's family
was warned
by the angels,
not to look back 
when they were
running away,
of Sodom and Gomorrah
because of the punishment,
and for wickedness,
of the inhabitants...

When Jesus 
I was teaching 
to his disciples,
what should they
do to serve you,
He said,
if someone 
wants to come after me, 
deny yourself, 
take up your cross, 
and follow me...

We then have
firstly,
IF ANYONE WANTS 
follow me...
Secondly,
renounce yourself...
And thirdly,
TAKE UP YOUR CROSS
and follow me...

Let's see here,
that secondly 
RESIGN 
yourself
means to deny,
or leave 
the old man 
to become 
a new creature,
abandon sin,
and no longer remember
of what it was before...

That's it 
May the Lord 
want us,
He invites us 
to a decision, 
to make everything new...
Throw your hand at the plough,
Follow Jesus 
in new 
don't remember anymore,
of what it was 
and live in grace,
to have a life in life...
