Based on Acts 7
I can’t understand why they persecute thee
In the Old and the New, they still failed to see,
Though you told them all, gave signs to them too,
Still many refused to bear witness to you.
Though commandments you gave to them so long ago,
There are still many men who won’t follow, forgo
Its timeless advice, it’s forgotten it seems,
For it won’t seem to fit with their plans and their schemes.
For you never dwelled in a house made with hands,
And you built us all up to do what you have planned,
Heaven’s your throne, and a footstool is earth,
Your Son even came through a virgin in birth.
Why do they resist the gift of your love,
Just let their hearts fill with the Spirit above?
Why is it that all these wars they prolong?
I am praying for them, and I’ll cry for the wrong.

This is another poem Bobbye that will make a very good addition to Rainbow of Hope, and it is very wise advice, for those that will heed it.
I agree with Andy and Dave, because I certainly have bore my cross to the mount, several, several times in my short 57 years.
MERRY CHRISTMAS BOBBYE, TO YOU AND YOURS, AND A VERY HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR, TOO, because mine can never be until the truth is told and my honor and good name are restored.
May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, maybe too stubborn for my own good, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS))))))))))), your very sad, very abandoned, very terrified little den sister, Barbie
"If I have to be this girl in me, Then I have the right to be."
Could be die or be damned...
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in tx., karen lynn. :(
