Follow Peace

To follow peace must be awfully boring. Hatred, war, and killing seem much more fun...and some even think that will get them a place in heaven. Yeah, right! Dream on is what I say...



 

Follow Peace

 

Chaos

Describes our world

Today

And for every tomorrow

Hatred

Not LOVE

Dominates

And has turned our world

Upside down and

Downside up

Poor misguided souls

Who can set things right again

Not man

That’s for sure

But God

Creator

Of all that is!

 

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness,

without which no man shall see God.”

(Hebrews 12:14KJV)

And this from the apostle Paul

"Let us consider how we may spur one another on

towards love and good deeds."

 (Hebrews 10:24NIV)

Many people in the world today are either sitting idle or are living as if there is no tomorrow, no heaven or hell...just living for the day. The sad thing is that as many are going on their own way the bible is unfolding before their very eyes! The war is only one more chapter being fulfilled...those that take lives with the beliefs of gaining eternal life are yet a prophesy coming to pass...someone made the comment the other day, "I don't know what the world is coming to!" I quickly added, "an end!" Several people left the room, they don't wont to hear about this...but the word tells us that they will run to the rocks to hide on that great day! It's coming and sooner I'm afraid than what many expect! I appreciate every day...gives us a little more praying time for those whom are still lost! Great write my friend, very thought provoking! God bless!
Blessings,

Lena,

A well-written and timely piece.

There will always be wars, because of man's pride.
We must always rise to the defense of what is good and right, for that reflects Christ in us.

Love &Hugs, Rhonda Welcome Home!

Lena, this poem is such an inspirational true poem...the voice comes from the heart. The people in this world are suffering and have turned to violence and hate to compensate for their anger...it's sad!! Wouldn't it be wonderful to see all countries at peace with each other and showing care for all people? I enjoyed this a lot!

With God, all things ARE possible, and in the End, GOD will triumph, NOT Satan. There's hope in your words; thanks for the sharing! BRAVA, Lena!

Lena, woman of faith indeed. A beautiful write. Our world is upside down. It is by Gods hands one day those creating caos and destruction shall awaken.

Lena,

Peace: it begins with each of us. Powerfully penned thought provoking write you've penned this morning; thank you. May we learn from your words, from Christ's words to think on good things.

Lena, I needed this today: "Let us consider how we may spur one another on towards love and good deeds." (Hebrews 10:24NIV)
A powerful statement.

Your poem "Follow Peace" reflects the floundering of our times. I've seen this world come from best to worst, and it doesn't seem to be getting better. HOW SAD IT IS FOR THE POOR CHILDREN WHO MUST SUFFER THE MISTAKES FROM THE SHAMBLES OTHERS HAVE MADE IN THIS COUNTRY.

Hatred Not LOVE Dominates And has turned our world Upside down.
Amen to that. I sometimes think if my book were more about killing it would sell better. Our country is caught up in violence. Violence begets violence and this leads to destruction.
Great write, Sister.
God Bless,
Lew
