It Was Good

The sun opened its eyes

And brightened the day

As God purposed

And that was good!


The stars, the planets

Danced in the night sky

With their sparkling lights

Flirting with the world


The moon took its place

In beauty of its light

Received from the sun

To shine the dark night


Then God created man

From the dust of the ground

And breathed in him life

But a companion for him


Not yet found

Adam went through surgery

Woke up with a missing rib

But a woman was found at his side


A beautiful gift

For Adam she was

And the two became one

And God thought it to be good


That was a perfect

Sinless World,

Where God would walk

In the cool of the day


To talk to Adam and Eve

In perfect communion

Until they sinned

And hid from Him


Judgment took place

On that day

For the three

But a promise was given


Salvation through the blood

Of His Son – the perfect sacrifice

Would be paid in full

For the redemption of mankind!

I have been committed to teaching the truth of the Word of God beginning with Trans World Radio on Bonaire, N.A and Swaziland, Africa (1969-1980), then through churches in the United States in both English and Portuguese and then through ministry in Israel (2005-2006). This ministry continues through local Bible studies and outreach to the world via the internet. I have written a book about my life from that of an orphan in Brazil to missionary in 5 countries.
