Poem Artwork

Lord, if our Nation needs prayer
It is today
Television screams the news
Read what the Papers have to say
America is in turmoil
We don't know what to do
We hear PRAISE be to Obama
But Lord, I praise only You
Lay Your hands on our Nation, Lord
Take away our fears
We need a great healing, Lord
Dry America's tears
...

There's children being abused
So much malice in the air
Our Police are being murdered
Lord , I know You care
Our Soldiers are being shot
There's homeless in the streets
There's someone out there somewhere
With nothing at all to eat
Lay Your hands on our Nation, Lord
Take away our fears
We need a great healing , Lord
Dry America's tears...

Our flag still waves so proud
We are the land of the free
But what price is our freedom
If our nations don't agree
Lord, we need Your healing touch
Heal us by Your grace
If all eyes would be on You
Everything would fall into place
Lay Your hands on our Nation, Lord
Take away our fears
We need a great healing, Lord
Dry America's tears...

So much hatred in this world
Lord, we need You now
I want to make a difference
Lord, just show me how
Teach us to LOVE one another, Lord
To put down our guns and knives
Lord, I know Your hope for us
Is to live much better lives
Lay Your hands on our Nation, Lord
Take away our fears
We need a great healing, Lord
Dry America's tears...

You have gone to the core of America's troubled times. We need the Lord! Keep praying, Linda, especially in this election season. He may choose to discipline us or to have mercy and give us another chance to turn to Him as a nation. May He hear our prayers and heal our nation!

Love,
Connie

You Write What Your Heart Tells You
Linda... Those Who Live In Vacuum Die In Vacuum
No Conscience Only What They Cannot See Past
Their Nose In Spite Of Their Face,i.e
Its Called Tunnel Vision Lack Of Education!

I don't know where you live, but the strangers that I meet are all friendly, open and happy people that generally have troubles (we all do) but take them in stride.

The only trouble I see is when people start to discuss politics and they side with extreme views that are not really what most Americans think or want. The separation of church and state is very important because religion should never drive government by and for "all" of the people..

News outlets get their ratings by views. The more sensational their stories, the more views they receive. Find commentators and reporters raising their voices, excitedly, over even mundane events. With nearly 400 million inhabitants, the trouble we see on television affects only a very small percentage of people. Part of the problem is that almost anyone can take a video of something happening and then get it to a television station where they can get paid for it, and if it's sensational enough, it will make national or international news.

The world is less dangerous and less divisive than it was during the entire 20th century when we didn't have "instant news" and news media purposely covered up infidelity and even minor crimes committed by politicians and other people of power.

You can stop being afraid and start living the good life we have. ;-)

Dear Linda, I will pray with you today:
"Lord, we need Your healing touch
Heal us by Your grace
If all eyes would be on You
Everything would fall into place!"
Amen
PS: This is the BEST poem I have read this year. I know the Lord is also saying, "Well done, Linda! Well done!" Amen
