Where All Did All The $$$ Go?

We are all in this economic downturn.
Like a bunch of Dominoes - we can all fall down if we do not heed the call.

Biblical Reference: Peter 5:2 (see below)


Poem Artwork

 “Not long ago, we had $$$$$$ much in stocks” I said, with a sigh!

Now we have half that, about $$$ in which I waved – “Good bye!”

So what do we do?

Should we hang tight like glue?

Who will be your friend when the dollars come to an end?

Will your spose still hang around?

Will you smile or wear a frown?

So many things come with a change.

Our dollars turn into cents.

It’s seems so unreal – it seems so strange.

People come and people go.

You know most are hurting for dollars! “Yes, this we know!”

 Yet the world goes on turing round and round.

Gambling is popular – yes, that’s still around.

We talk about people who hunger, yes, many folks are in need.

We hear about failures – businesses collapse due to greed!

Our future of our children seems not all that bright.

What can we do, but look to the light?

The light of Jesus, this light does not grow dim.

The Lord is our rock – Have faith, trust in Him!

So when this old world starts going astray.

Stay close to the God’s love, for He IS THE WAY!

Amen

 

 

 Biblical Reference:

Peter 5:2
Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, serving as overseers—not because you must, but because you are willing, as

  GOD wants you to be; not greedy for money, but eager to serve;od wants you to be; not greedy for money, but eager to serve;

Absolutely. If He be for us, who can be against us? Now there's a gift to hang on to. Blessings, J'nia
