Food For Thought<\/p>\n
Tragedy is threatening on all sides.
\nIs there no good news to idolize?
\nSuicides are way up in recent years.
\nIs that enough to alert your ears?
\nThere is wars and rumors of wars.
\nEnough to stress you to your core.
\nPandemics, floods, fires, drought.
\nIs this what it is all about?
\nNational unrest, violence, killing.
\nRead all about it, if you\u2019re willing.
\nPeople\u2019s hearts trembling with fear.
\nThe final hours of earth is near.
\nChurches are closing left and right.
\nLow attendance have pastors uptight.
\nThere is no simple answer that I can see.
\nIt seems the answer is up to you and me.
\nLove seems to be the only way.
\nThe need for it grows greater every day.
\nMaybe what Jesus said is not so wrong.
\nI\u2019m sorry realizing it has taken so long.
\nLove God with all your heart and soul.
\nLove one another like they were your bro.
\nPeople are not likely to do this.
\nThat is why things have gone so amiss.
\nIt is food for thought, but could be more.
\nLet it sink in to your very core.<\/p>\n
