Created To Protect

Created to protect, this world.
From the soil of the Earth, now turned.
Mankind formed to love.

But, this fallen world full of greed,
rapes the land and pollutes the sea.
Through love of money.

Our animal friends living with us,
run and hide, while we come to crush,
everything they love.

A perfect world; now fallen to filth.
A lost paradise of golden worth,
where love never failed.

Trapped in a loveless system; broken.
Unable to solve the real problem.
Where love is weakness.

We have failed our first instructions,
to dress and keep the creation,
by Him who is Love.

Our dominion became a power trip.
Destroying like demons from the pit.
All love has grown cold.

Until the day that Paradise comes,
and fills the broken Earth from above,
a return to Love.

How Do We Pray?

It’s simpler than we think Prayer, is a conversation with God. For me, I just talk to the Lord. Jesus says that God is our father. The Apostles tell us that God is our father as well, if we know Him. When we believe Him, He calls us friend. Abraham believed what God told him,…

As If By Fire

We Are Being Sanctified “Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man’s…
