March 11th, 2022: What is Happening?

When people stand up for what is right,

they are told that it is not your fight.

When people ask the government to hear them out,

their government questions what the fuss is all about?

When people want to know how their tax money is being spent,

the government says it has no ideas for what, why, and when.

When people's charitable givings are being tracked by their government,

they will have the right to fight against such a dangerous engagement.

When small businesses find it hard to survive,

big box businesses enjoy their chance to thrive.

When are fairness and justice tend to escape our moral lenses,

the press sometimes keeps pushing forward with their nonsense.

When we think we are vaccinated against the virus, we forget that we are not exempted from the death of our sinful chorus.

When we keep on singing praises about science,

it has no authority to define our conscience.

When we fail to allow contradictions to exist,

we are running a risk of being extremists.

When pets are treated far better than homeless folks,

our attempt to fight human rights is such a hoax.

When we say that we are all about God's business,

yet our treatment towards our loved ones manifests hollowness.

1 John 3: 13-15

"Do not be surprised, brothers, that the world hates you. We know that we have passed out of death into life because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him."

Proverbs 16: 25

"There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death."

1 Timothy 5:8

"But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever."
