For some it is a thing of hope,

Others, a thing of dread,

Yet never predictable.

It is always coming,

But never arrives.

What am I ? Tomorrow

1.This riddle dates from before 1000 B.C .
"Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness." What am I?

2.Adam, God made out of dust, But thought it best to make me first.
So I was made before the man, To answer Gods most holy plan.

My body God did make complete, But without arms or legs or feet.
My ways and acts He did control, But to my body gave no soul.

A living being I became, And Adam gave to me a name.
I from his presence then withdrew, and moreof Adam never knew.

I did my Maker's law obey, Nor from it ever went astray.
Thousands of miles I go in fear, But seldom on the earth appear.

For a purpose wise which God did see, He put a living soul in me.
A soul from me my God did claim, And took from me that again.

And when from me that soul had fled, I was the same as when first made.
And without hands or feet or soul, I travel on from pole to pole.

I labor hard by day and night, To fallen man I give great light.
Thousands of people young and old, Will by my death great light behold.

Nor right nor wrong can i concieve, The Scriptures I cannot believe.
Although my name is therein found, They are to me an empty sound.

No fear of death doth trouble me, Real happiness I never shall see.
To Heaven I shall never go, Or to the grave or Hell below.

Now when these lines you slowly read, Go search your Bible, with all speed.
For that my name's recorded there, I honestly to you declare.
What am I?
