"COMPASSION IS MORE POWERFUL
THEN ANY WEAPONS EVER CREATED!"
by Judy Joy Jones


i pray today
for the millions
of homeless
dying before our eyes

may not one person
say to the poor
'you chose to be
living on the streets
eating out of garbage cans'

as we tenderly dry
the tears
of the most
unwanted on earth

may we see each soul
as our own father
mother sister an brother

every second
could be the last
of the poorest of the poor
dying before our eyes

i pray today
that the millions
of homeless
in desparate need
be offered
open hearts and arms
thru you and me

We were born in love by spirit. This is why we are born to love, not to just enjoy life only for ourselves but to give glory unto the Creator and have a heart for the suffering. The fact that you spotlight this very essence is so deeply profoundly needed.... Sometimes when I go into my prayer closet the overflowing emotions for them is so profound I cannot stop the massive rivers of flow... We are born now at the greatest suffering in history, many cannot afford healthcare, housing because of this ever changing global uniting, wars and rumers of wars which make suffering and costs go up more for basic things, yet the greatest time in all history for open doors to be a light greater than ever. Everyone that i have encountered even if I had no money to give, a smile, a testimony of how I weathered different adversities and my outpouring of love changed their spirit, helped them take a load off and then they felt they were no longer shunned and powerless.....This exchange was always priceless. In fact we carry not anything when we leave except the goodness we have waved in love ripples...That is the legacy I want to leave. Thank you Judy as always for your balm of mercy~
