SIN NOT

Though you may get upset,
Avoid falling in sin.
Forgive before sunset.
Why let the devil win?

The above verse is a paraphase of the Bible scripture, "Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil" (Ephesians 4:26-27KJV).

BE DISCREET

A man of discretion--
His anger, he defers.
Bypassing transgression
Is the way he prefers.
