Without Any Reward

Without Any Reward! Notice the letters; W.A.R. They spell WAR! It has been prophesied that there would be wars and rumors of wars. It has been foretold that nation shall rise up against nation. I guess our Lord knew us too well.


Poem Artwork

It is without any reward that man can see.


War is destruction on land and on sea.


 


There is no hope for peace when we take up arms.


Do we not see the signs?  Do we not heed the alarms?


 


Without Any Hope, we fight and destroy one another.


Just as Cain slew Abel we destroy sister and brother.


 


Will man ever learn that fighting only brings destruction?


Do we not know or follow our Makers instruction?


 


“Love one another,” were wise words from Gods Son.


Instead we breed hatred and in this way many wars have begun.


 


Why is it so easy to hate?  What is served by this negativity?


Can we not allow each man to have his form of dignity?


 


I have a theory about this thing we call hate.


It is each mans insecurity with himself making him unable to relate


 


He cannot relate to the feelings of others and their right to be free.


If we lay these insecure feelings aside how much happier would we be?


 


War is destruction; built on hatred and the lack of compassion.

If we could only learn to love, what a wonderful world we could fashion

You are so right my friend, this prophesy must come to pass for the Lord to return and take His children home...it's sad when we look around and see how many of our friends, family, and others whom are wasting their time focusing on things of this world, and not laying up their treasures for a home in heaven...reminds me of an old hymn...Don't Loose Your Vision...if we truly realize how the bible is unfolding before our very eyes, our vision would remain within our view at all times...a great write my friend, stirring, lingers on one's thoughts...
Blessings,

"If we could only learn to love, what a wonderful world we could fashion" <- Amen, Lew!

The billions of dollars and lives wasted on the Iraq invasion and occupation could've done a lot more good at home. Hopefully, we'll bring our troops home sooner rather than later.

Love & Light always and in all ways,
Joseph*

War is indeed the root in insecurity - look at the one we're in, and the inability to relate.
I agree, wholeheartedly, "If we could only learn to love, what a wonderful world we would fashion"

With all the election hoopla - many candidates would be well advised to consider love and togetherness instead of separating all into warring factions.

Lew,

In the last days, the love of many will wax cold...

There will be wars and rumors of wars...

Earthquakes (tragedies) in diverse places...

we're seeing it come to pass. Even so, Come, Lord Jesus.

Powerful, heartbreaking reality of prophecy fullfilling before our horrified eyes.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

The sadness in this truth Lew is that it will only get worse until they all cry "Peace...Peace and the the suddend destruction"

Well said Sir and God Bless

So true, Lew; we need to put love and compassion back in our world. God help us!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

GREAT message in this one!
